This kit is available in steel as well. It can be welded in and smoothed out and you will still be left with exterior and interior handles as well as your exterior door locks. This kit isn't a universal bear claw latch, it is specifically designed to work with this truck. The plate is not universal, it is embossed to allow clearance between the latch and the trucks window track. The mounting holes have all been countersunk to match the factory panels. The mounting holes fit perfectly to the factory mounting locations on the doors. I went to your website and you do some awesome work, but to try to pass off universal latches as a more economical solution is doing an injustice to people. The most expensive version of this kit is $399.95. If you will find me the shop or do-it-yourselfer that can get these results for $399 using universal plates and latches I will retract what I have said.
First off did we
ever say the product was to high or not worth the money to spend.

No we did not we were showing another bearclaw kit we have been using for
years in our shop.

The Kit we are showing might not be for everybody,this is just a kit that will
give your truck jambs that nice clean smooth look once all is painted.
