Ext. Door handles

Does anyone make any custom ext door handles for our trucks? I like the original ones ok and the shaved is my pick if i can't find any "custom" billet ones.

I've never seen any specifically made for our trucks. I have seen people graft in the 88 & up handles onto our trucks, doesn't look bad.

Are you going to use a hidden button as well? If so, any ideas where you might put it? I've always wondered how much this opens you up to theft.

You can always trip the latch mechanically using your key. Ken
