Product Description
Chrome Tailgate Handle Cover, 2 Pieces, for Ford F-150 (1997-2003) and F-250 / F-350 Super Duty (1999-2007) (DH37306)
DH37306 is one tailgate handle cover kit cataloged for two Ford pickup lines. QAA lists it for the Ford F-150 from 1997 to 2003 and for the Ford F-250 and F-350 Super Duty from 1999 to 2007. The kit has two pieces of polished chrome-plated ABS plastic and is imported.
Two trucks, one tailgate kit
It is not common for a single trim part to span both a half-ton and the Super Duty line, so here is exactly what the catalog says:
- Ford F-150, 1997-2003 (seven model years), 2-door and 4-door pickup truck
- Ford F-250 and F-350 Super Duty, 1999-2007 (nine model years), 2-door and 4-door pickup truck
Cab door count is listed for both rows, but since this part goes on the tailgate, the door count of the cab is mainly there to show that regular and larger cabs are both included. The Fitment tab shows each row as QAA records it.
About the key opening
The catalog does not include a key access note for this SKU, so it does not say whether the cover has an opening for a tailgate lock. If your tailgate has a key cylinder, look closely at the product photos or call us before ordering so we can confirm.
Material and look
The cover is molded ABS plastic with a polished chrome plating. On a pickup, the tailgate handle is one of the first things people see from behind, and a chrome piece there ties in with a chrome rear bumper. Because it is molded rather than flat, it gives the handle area a full, shaped chrome surface.
Mounting
QAA uses 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape on this kit. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing any damage to the surface of the vehicle. Tailgates pick up road spray and dust, so prep matters even more than at the doors. Wash the handle area, go over it with a degreaser, and let it dry completely. Lower the tailgate if that gives you a better angle, test-fit both pieces, then press each one firmly. See the Installation tab for the step-by-step version.
Why two pieces
The catalog lists two pieces but does not describe what each one covers. The photos show their shapes, so match them to your tailgate handle before either piece goes on.
Linked parts
No companion QAA parts are cross-listed with this SKU. If you want door handle covers or other chrome trim to match on your F-150 or Super Duty, call us and we will look up what QAA offers for your truck.
Catalog note
The product notes on this listing say "Door Handle Cover," while the part itself is a tailgate handle cover kit. We have flagged the wording; the title, category, and photos all describe the tailgate part.

Installation tips: Tailgate Handle Cover Kit
- Unpack all 2 pieces and match each one to its position on the vehicle, using the product photos, before fitting any of them.
- Each piece mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, so clean and dry the mounting surface first; the tape needs paint or trim free of dirt and wax.
- Align the piece and press it firmly into place, working along its full length so the tape bonds evenly.
- Fit one piece at a time and compare each with the product photos and the pieces already in place.
These are general tips. Follow any instructions packed with your kit if they differ.
