After seeing guys doing this at another forum, I decided that it looked good and wanted it done with my truck. However, they haven't looked into mirror covers as well. You guys know me well enough that I don't use aftermarket parts if I don't have to. I called a "U pull it" north of me (after almost 4 weeks of searching/calling) and they said they had a totalled 07 Tundra. They wanted $100 a mirror or $5 for each of the covers
Anyways, you can see the pics and see if you like it and want to do it:
Parts/Tools: You'll need the following.
T-30 Hex screwdriver
Flathead screwdriver
Electrical tape
4 - 69210-0C020 Handles
1 - 69217-0C020 End Cap Driver's side
3 - 69217-0C040 End Cap Passenger Side
Note that this is for a CrewMax. If you have a Double Cab or Regular Cab, you'll only need 2 handles, 1 driver and 1 passenger end cap. I bought my kit from
Sparks Toyota for $99 including shipping. I'm sure they have a kit if you have the DC or RC. Anyways, we digress.
First for the mirror install:
Here is the back of the chrome mirror. I circled the tabs you will need to get with a screwdriver.
The first thing to do is position your mirrors all the way down until the mirror doesn’t go any further. Then look for the tabs. Starting closest to the cab, push the tab. Be sure to hold the mirror while do this. You’ll see the mirror backing start to come out. Once it comes out you can pretty much pull it out. Make sure to pull from the top as you have to pull the top out first.
After you get the cap off, here’s what you’ll see:
After you get that off, its just a matter of putting the new one back on. Make sure you put the bottom on first and work your way up. You’ll have to snap everything back into place. Don’t be afraid of breaking anything; these covers were pretty durable.
Now off to the door handles:
The door handles are easy. First, you need to open the door and use your screwdriver to pry the cover off. I used the electrical tape to help protect the door and damaging the paint. Once that’s off, you’ll see the T-30 screw you’ll undo.
Start unscrewing the bolt. Don’t be afraid of losing it because it has plastic retainers that prevent it from coming undone. Once the bolt it loose, you’ll need to wiggle the lock portion of handle:
The unit will look like this:
You’ll need to undo the cover by prying gently with a screwdriver to get it off. Replace with the new one.
Now, you’ll need to grab the handle firmly and pull in the direction of the arrows. The handle will easily be removed. I’ve included a short video clip of how to do it as well.

To install, just reverse the procedure. Real easy. The other doors use the same procedure. PM me if you have questions.

Like you I prefer the oem stuff. I tried to find the part number for just the covers, but was told toyota hadn't released it yet. Did you notice a PN on the back of the mirror covers you installed? Really great write ups BTW, they have helped alot. 
A total crock if you ask me.
