Sticky door handles

[B1MM3R]

So the x5 that we just purchased has sticky rear door handles, which from what Iv'e read is a common thing. So Iv'e contemplated buying new handles, but instead decided to give these a try:Grey Stitch Fits BMW x5 E70 07 13 2X Rear Door Handle Leather Covers Only | eBay
My car has the dove grey interior and they are making me a custom set to match my interior. About $45 shipped vs about $100 for each door handle new that will just eventually melt again. Just wanted to share this with those who have this issue.
