So, I've searched the forums and scoured the web (somewhat anyway) and have yet to find a good Oh Shit Handle solution. Has anyone found any? My MIL is now staying with us and even in entry height, and with running boards, she has a difficult time getting in and out without anything to grab onto.

Any of the various suction cup shower handles work well enough if you search Amazon. I think they work better than the other S3XY cars, but I’ve not seen anybody come up with anything better.

Well, thats an idea that I didnt think of. I'll take a look and see if that is a decent stand in. Thanks.

I absolutely hate there’s no oh shit handles in my Y or the Cybertruck it just sucks I was going to create this same thread. Thank you

Two issues with using visor bolt brackets
1 clearance to fold back with enough room to grab the handle

Maybe attach paracord handles to that bolt point

The header areas between the A, B, and C pillars contain the side-curtain airbags, which is why there are no stock handles.

I’m not saying there are no creative solutions, but caution must be taken when working in that area, and I’d be concerned that any modification could reduce airbag effectiveness.

Those would be good, but where to put them that wont make an airbag explode in your face when installing.

I had a handle on the A pillar in my 22 Tundra that was really helpful for the wife when she would climb in, but there doesn't seem to be anywhere to put one in my CT. At least nowhere where it would be hlepful.

I ordered this one for my Model 3 and it works well for people with back issues. It's a handle right where you need it. And it can stow in the door pocket. I haven't moved it to the Cybertruck yet. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09P4YYR8S?th=1

Stretch out the drivers seatbelt and have her grab that.
