Okay, handles came in two days flat. That is faster than some woman I know!
(Just kidding, bad joke!) Like the post above, I went and checked my laptop case, BAM! perfect match too. So I went to put my straps on, got out my Bosch cordless drill, BAM! perfect match again. Someone is cranking these things out!

Like I said, I did the grommet thing, works great, no worries about fraying edges. Used the washer underneath too!

Great mod German, good find on the handles, farbuckle! These handles look like they came stock on the Jeep!
Finished Product

Should have my matching Mastercraft handles on Monday or Tuesday.

Found the same ones for the front online at jd's. They are OMIX / Rugged Ridge.
Just got an email back from Omix and they said they will be offering a handle setup for the rear like that.
"Thanks for the heads up. We have already produced these items and they are on there way to us now. The following images are of the center dual grab handle, the front seat headrest grab handles and the rear roll bar grab handles for the JK…. Stock should be in very soon.
Both the rear grab handles and the dual center have metal eyelets pressed on so the customer only needs to unscrew the bolts to install. The head rest grab handles only require that the customer remove the head rest and then reinstall. "
I got the PDF for install which has pics if anyone wants to check it out.
