'Interior Driver Assist Handle'

BrandonCF · April 28, 2017

I put it on and off a few times the result was not what it should be. I suspect the part but putting it on and off again the plastic pointy piece is wearing. I am not sure I can return it. I may cut it off. The bolts line up well. I have done this type of thing before so I am pretty sure it is not me.

It sounds like you are having the same issue I had when I installed mine. It wasn't sitting flush like the one on the passenger side. The cause of the problem for me was definitely the triangular plastic pointy piece between the bolt holes. I cut it off and then was able to line it up and have it fit just right. It sits flush and looks identical to factory passenger side. No gaps. Hopefully cutting the triangular guide off will solve your problem.

Installed this afternoon. Way happy with myself right now.

Adding picture from that day.

Still the same result. It is the part. I cut the pointed piece off and that improved the fit vertically along the A pilar. At the top there is a gap. It is small but not as good as I would like. I will post a photo later.

I bought this from the Amazon link in this thread.

I have a 16. Dealership says they only made for 14-15. Where do i get a proper part # for my 16 and match my interior?

I put the one from my 2014 into my 2016 and it matches perfectly.

between the steering wheel and handle on the headliner, do people really need a 3rd handle?! lol maybe it's because I'm new to a general truck forum, but man people on this site make the biggest deals about the smallest things! lol next thing you'll need is a step up to your running boards then you'll need a handle so that you can grab your newly added handle!! Like stairs for your truck!!!!

Pavement princesses need all the cool guy stuff...not mine.

Mine is a LT and has driver side fatass/over lifted assist handle. Hardly use it because I am not a fatass nor is my truck 10 feet off the dirt but it is there.

I put one in last week because seat bolster lives matter.

I ordered mine from amazon for my 2016 worked perfect !!!

One of the flaws of the interior has been the absence of this on the driver's side. NOT anymore, will be installing this soon!

DEV1ST8R · January 12, 2018

Just want to thank the forum for taking more of my money... Handle is ordered.

For those that have a gap at the top of the handle and headliner, I was able to slightly correct the gap by trimming the tab down a little bit on the inside.

Thanks, I’ll have to try this, because mine has a gap at the top after trying to install

I shouldn’t be surprised but yet I am that so many people have fit issues on a molded piece of plastic! I’m NOT saying there isn’t a problem with some of these things it’s just that one would assume they are all the same and pop right on. I’m just thankful that mine wasn’t one of the problem pieces. It’s a great Mod and saves my seat from a terrible early death.

I would be willing to bet it's installation error. Mine fits perfect.

Back somewhere around page 27 somebody said it didn't fit then after they kept messing with it for a while they finally got it right and it fit perfect.
