fleetside tailgate handle
 
Does anybody know if the reproduction tailgate handles are any good? Or should I look for an original?

Highly recommend getting an original handle. I tried two different repop handles, neither would work with my original gate.

I used a repop handle with a reproduction tail gate. It worked ok with some adjusting. However, it had real issues clearing the upper chrome bezel. Wouldn't have been an issue without the aluminum trim.
It appears you made your choice an found an original. Love this board for that exact reason.
Cheers
