I thought mine were putcos but I'm not really sure. I pulled them off and they were stamped stainless. They'll stay on real good even when cold no problems there. Just clean the door handles with some alcohol pads before applying. I got tired of them and thought it was too much so off they came. Bent a couple of them pulling off otherwise they'd be in DTR classifieds for cheap.

I have the Putcos and they look great. Several months ago I was washing the truck and three of them came off in my hand the same day. I put some new 3M tape on them and they have been fine ever since. I check them all about once every couple weks to make sure they aren't loose now.....

Iv had the Putco covers on mine for about two years and they are holding up very nicely.
After washing the truck, I use compressed air to blow around the handles to eliminate any trapped water.
They havent budged.
I got mine from http://www.autotrucktoys.com
