I was surprised to learn you can buy these all day long from Summit and probably Amazon or other places and they're inexpensive, $13 for the handle and a little more than that for the trim surround. The trim piece and interior handle can be found with this search.

Everyone knows Dorman brand, but the OER brand handle is supposedly the closest you can get to stock.

For part numbers... you can take these numbers and plug them into Summit's search box directly and see results for you if you've got tan (neutral) or grey interior:

15708051 -> Handle, Inside, LEFT (NEUTRAL/TAN)
15708052 -> Handle, Inside, RIGHT (NEUTRAL/TAN)
15708043 -> Handle, Inside, LEFT (GRAY)
15708044 -> Handle, Inside, RIGHT (GRAY)

Note that GM Parts Direct also still sells the OEM part, but for 6x more than the re-pops. Parts numbers and stuff are available with exploded diagram here.

I just prefer GMPD because I helped build their first websites back in the late 90s and the folks running it back then were awesome :D

Stock is nothing to brag about since they so commonly fail they are laying on shelves at Advance auto parts in a variety of colors. I've replaced mine.

I won't spend the $1000 on nos then!

I have replaced the driver's side indoor handle on a suburban and a truck with after market. The handle works and fits fine. The door lock switch operation on both was and still is not smooth. The remote lock/unlock is used anyways so it does not matter.

Some of the lack of smoothness is the build up of crud on the latch & lock mechanism. One of my rear doors on my 98 Tahoe wouldn't unlock with the rest on command all the time so I tore into it and found it was pretty gummed up. De-greased and cleaned up the assembly then re-greased it properly and the lock worked great.
