'Interior Driver Assist Handle'

[quise2024]

Just found this thread as I was wondering why I didn't have a handle. Read the first 15 pages just out of curiosity on everyone's experiences.

Funny how last year shopchevyparts and gm were shipping out at around $45, but now with shipping charges you pay almost $60.. shame

 

Will hit up that ebay link and get me one

Got mine on Amazon for $37.50 shipped.

Does it block the view?

Amazon is 48 bucks for the tan model. Molding Package https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00Y3SD72I/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_agcFvbFY85Y8F

I don't even notice its there when driving…

Can someone please post a video of actually using a drivers side assist handle?

 

Personally, it seems the location would make it awkward to use?

[Daly]

I don't have a video, but it isn't that awkward. It's basically a little higher then the steering wheel most people grab. The handle is very useful when complemented with steps. While I do use it to get in and out of the truck, it's also very useful to clean off the roof…

To try it just try it on the passenger side. I don't really use it unless I'm cleaning the windshield. Plus I plan on keeping it as long as I possibly can so I may be having to use it to get in the truck in the future lol. I don't even use the steps for myself either, but most other people (like my mom, uncle and grandma and also some friends) use them.

When I wash my truck I stand on top of my toolbox when I'm washing the roof. But, I do use the handle to hold on to while cleaning the windshield.

I have a soft tonneau, and soon to have a topper, can't stand on those. But all the handles come in handy when cleaning the roof, just open the door, stand on the steps and hold the handle if I need to… I do use it for the windshield too…

I used to grab the steering wheel while getting in and ou, but now I use the handle...

I rent a lot of vehicles. Recently, I rented a 2015 Tahoe that didn't have the handle, but did have steps. I really missed the assist handle now that I used it in my truck...

[Habs]

Yeah it was the first thing I did to my truck. Dealer put it on for $65 bucks taxes included.

 

Got tired of grabbing the steering wheel. The handle makes getting in and out 100x easier now, no more sliding over the seat bolster.

Can someone provide a "how to" link to install it please? Thanks

Hmm. Finally got around to ordering mine. Was $42 with free shipping from Amazon.

See post 97 for instructions and just before that there are pics of it installed. Not awkward to use at all.
