Installed my white door handles - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I installed my white door handles this weekend, I think it really cleaned up the look.
The driver's door took me over an hour. I found a few sites with good directions but the door panels changed a little in the last year or two, so the directions weren't totally correct. The other three doors took me 20 minutes total, since I knew what I was doing.
Sorry about the pictures, it's tough to find enough daylight this time of the year to get good pictures.

I still like your previous truck better. but now there is room for the whole fam damily. nice truck bud.

BTW, give it a small ding with a little hammer in a non-visible spot. just to get that first dent out of the way.

looks good. my truck is silver i guess i can get painted ones for it to?

You can. I bought mine off Ebay from a dealer in Florida. They shipped quick, and it was cheaper than getting them from my dealer in town.

that looks real good,
how much are those.

I paid $153 shipped for the four doors, the tailgate was another $55. My wife thought it was a waste of $200, it probably was but I think it looks way better.
