Pros:
once they were on, looks and works good
Cons:
required considerable modification to fit
<P>From D and R also, in a box with only their label. These things were awful. The door button pin was too long, and the body part that fits into the door was way too big. It took 2 hours with the grinder to make them fit. Didn't like the gaskets, used the ones from a pui paint seal kit. The included screws are not correct and are too long, won't tighten down all the way. They look and work well once on, but a 10 minute job took 2 hours!</P>

Looked at Trim Parts brand door handles at Super Chevy and they looked like nice parts. They were sitting next to "another" brand in the booth and the people showed you the difference. Basicly what Jim has in his review. If your looking for door handles Trim Parts brand might be the way to go. I have not used them or fitted them but they look alot better, the price is also about 1/3 more. Worth it for this important part I think.

Pros:
Cons:
<P>My brother and I both purchased Trim Parts for each of our cars. The rod on both were way to short and we were forced to modify them. The chromer is good as well as the finish. If you buy the trim parts plan on modifying the rod. I used new door locks as well and ended up modifying the door lock instead of the push rod.</P>
