"I purchased these billet handles to replace the plastic handles on my 2006 Dodge Ram. I thought these were complete handles ready to install, but they are not. Following the instructions was easy. You have to remove two pins and the spring assembly from the old handles first. It's not hard, but it would have been better to be able to just remove and replace the handles. I guess it's a cost factor for AMI to include these small parts. Once the old parts are added to the new handles, it's a straight forward installation. I think there should have been a seal for the new handles since the plastic factory handles will compress a little against the door bucket and keep water out. The jury is still out on that. I know they will be better than the factory plastic handles. They really make the truck look better and have a more solid feel when opening the door. I'm not sure how long the polished finish will last, but complared to $315.00 per pair for chrome plating, they'll be alright."

"The instructions for removing door panel was very good. The replacement of the door handles took a while longer to figure out. Also the handle on the driver side did not come with the retaining screw and washers. Called for help problem solved. After installation I removed the the handles and put weather stripping around handle for weather sealing. My 2002 F250 has been broken into 3 times, with a cost of $250 to replace the flimsy plastic handles and locks each time. The new handles are so much more sturdy. For now I feel the truck is more secure."

"I took mine apart and had them sanded and painted to match. The one problem I have had is the heavy duty handles have a small piece of plastic with a tiny screw and washer that just barely covers the edge to keep the whole actual lever from coming off the pivot shaft. I had to use larger washers and grind them on the outer sided to fit farther over the opening. If you have this problem, you will see exactly what I'm talking about. After that, all good just wish it had a gasket like others. But painting to match took out the gaps."

"This product looks good and is high quality. The instructions need to be updated with the 2008 Ford models as they have changed but nothing that you can't figure out on your own. Overall easy install and great looking product. I would make the purchase again."

Billet Door Handles

"The product is high quality though the fit is not what I would have liked. Additionally it would be great if your supplier added some type of gasket as there is space between the handle and the door. The directions are somewhat out of date for 2006 F250s the clips inside are different than described, but the directions still were very helpful. Finally the finish of the chrome is has more wave to it than other chromed products I have seen. All in all they look good and were not too hard to install."
