Has anyone found a driver side assist handle for 21-22s. I have asked a few dealerships and they cant seem to find one only the stock a pillar cover. Curious if anyone else has came across one?

It’s so crazy there’s no driver or passenger assist bar in the Denalis, at least the other trims get a passenger assist bar.

^^^^ This.

My 79 Yr Old Father in Law can barely get in my Denali.
So annoyed at GM on not having this, and no real idea why; other than maybe it interferes with the A-Pillar Speaker in the Denail?
Regardless, I sure would like to have one, if I had black interior, I would consider punting the A-Pillar speaker in favor of the Handle, but I have Light Shale/Teak, so they probably don't even make the handle in Light Shale.

I test drove the High Country Suburban, it had one...never got to see a Denali in person until I got mine, so didn't notice the lack of A-Pillar handle.

Let me know if you guys have ideas, I am guessing the threaded bosses for the handle bolts are present on the body, but admittedly I have not removed the cover yet.

The new Sierra's that have speakers in the A-Pillar also have grab handles - on both sides!

On the previous generation Yukon, it looks like the attachment points are in stand-off brackets. I couldn't find a video for 21+ A-Pillar trim removal, but I think it would be similar to the previous generation. Take a spudger tool, pop the trim loose and let us know what you see!
