The stock mounting points. Straight up bolt in. They replace the stock ones and look nicer doing it. However, they are harder than the stock ones if you hit your head on them, which is why I have the part in the OP about show use only and you being willing to take responsibility for your mods.

As for strength, they are billet aluminum vs. plastic, but the question is how much can Toyota's sheet metal mounting points take. Pop your A-pillar cover off one day and you will see there isn't a lot of beef back there.

Honestly, if you plan to jump or roll your truck, I'd consider removing the Toyota plastic ones and running no handles altogether. But it is your rig. Only you can decide which is best for you and your passengers.
