Default Chrome Door Handles Accessory: interfere with Smart Access?

I was interested in getting some chrome door handles for my 2007 GSh such as these here.

Anyone care to venture if they would interfere with the Smart Access functionality (that lets you open the door with you key on the pocket)?

There is no reason to believe there would be interference otherwise wouldn't all the other chrome trim on the GS interfere as well?

The item description states "with smart access".

Those are covers applied with sticky tape, not actual replacement handles. I would not bother with those. Get the real thing instead.

other lexus models have chrome door handles and smart access with no problems. would not think you would have any issues either.
