They are genuine Toyota handles and NOT covers. I checked out the covers locally and now that I have handled both *no pun intended* -> factory handles are the only way to go. Seems shipping has gone up a lot. I paid $18 for shipping a couple of months ago making it $152 total and NOW $28 for shipping makes them $162. Price of crude I guess. They fit like a charm and supper easy to install. Seller is zeroism702

They have their own web site. I'll have to look it when I get home.

^^^ You can have them chemically stripped and black chromed. Anyways this was a topic a while back. I posted allot of pics and instructions to install. Sorry I don't have the link atm it was a while ago, but I am sure if you guys do a search you can find it. Great quality OEM Japan part by the way.

Install is kind of a pain. Gotta take off the door moldings and pay attention to parts so they don't go hiding from you in the metal door frame Lots of paying attention to it esp. when putting everything back.
