There has been discussion here about how this grab handle is provided on UK and Japanese LEAFs but not our North American ones. I decided I wanted one. We plan to keep our LEAF a long time and we are not getting any younger. A grab handle for the driver would be very handy for getting in and out, especially because I am pretty tall. It was a pricey mod but I am glad we did it. I bought the handle from the dealer for about $60 and installation was about $100. The handle is the same for all 4 positions in the vehicle. The LEAF specialist at Downtown Los Angeles Nissan was a bit skeptical about whether everything needed for installation was under the headliner, but he was game to try if I was. I knew the indentation was there for a handle because you can see it. He had to carefully peel back the headliner and then makes cuts in the headliner to attach the handle. He did a great job and is now ready to do a similar installation for anyone else!
So maybe we are the only ones in the US who have a LEAF with a driver's side grab handle? :mrgreen:
