Hello my question is can I have the hand control on the left hand and the steering rob on the right. In the opposite side that you have in the video?
Hi - we do have hand controls available that suit left hand drive! Please get in touch with our office to find out if we can help you.
I am from India. How can I get this?
Can you buy this in the US? I’d really, really like it for my car!
I think you should offer advice and support and not strongly recommend people don't install a child lock on the front seat. As you are very well aware every disability is unique and not everyone who pulls door handles do so because they're out of control. Some people are under control but simply pull the handles because they need to, as they are receiving sensory feed back and input from the noise it makes when it's flicked. Helps them regulate in the car.
What if your car battery is under your seat? Does this seat allow access to the battery?
Hi, Typically - the Turny is mounted to the pre-existing anchorage points in the vehicle, so your vehicle would need to be assessed to determine it's suitability. Please get in touch with our office if you'd like to discuss that more!
please notify me when these are available. I want a lightweight one. asap

How do I buy one of these in Australia. My Husband has recently had his right leg amputated?
Hi tthere, if you call our office on (02) 94824572 we can help you with this.
A relative who has advanced dementia rides in the front seat due to care sickness. She is not disruptive and holds the stationary handle on the door while driving but becomes confused and grabs the door handle that opens the door by mistake. This has happened on more than one occasion while the vehicle is moving. It is not intentional and although she is reminded to not grab the handle, she does not remember. She enjoys car rides and we would like to find a safe solution for the future.
Brilliant idea.
I have the same chair and it does work in manual model . Even with a cheap Bunnings cordless drill .
Greetings, just wondered if a non-disabled person can use the vehicle in the normal way as well? I need to have my car adapted soon but my partner also needs to drive as an abled driver.
Hi, the answer is yes! The vehicle can still be operated normally even with the hand controls installed!
Can I change our existing Turney swivel seat into one that becomes a manual wheelchair? Do you have a demonstration model?

Good evening I have a wav mk3 caddy I looked under the van tonight and the top of one of the rear ARB links wasnt attached, the tread has snapped do you know if these are nut and bolted or if it's a weld on tread ? Thanks
Thanks for the video Ali. The Carrot 3000 and other special purpose car seats which are available in Australia may require the combined use of the ISOFIX fixation AND vehicle seatbelt to maintain a user’s safety. This is by design and should not be ignored! Important to consider that information which relates to “off the shelf” restraints in Australia can often be quite different to that for products designed for users with disabilities. In this instance, using a special purpose car seat with just ISOFIX may result in incorrect installation of the product and could be putting the occupant in danger. Whenever installing a car seat, mainstream or special purpose, always check the instruction manual and follow this!
Curious, can you lift it with the drill with your chair on it My chair weighs over 370 pounds Can it even carry it or raise it up
A 370 lb (or 168kg) power chair is likely to heavy for the current Chariot Trailer unfortunately! You may have to explore some other transport options for a chair of that size.
Can you do a video on fitting carseat into a single cab ute
We'll add it to the list - thanks for the recommendation!
I’m interested in getting one.
Another reason , with the platform up , with the holes , less drag , better fuel economy . Solid platform , more drag , bad fuel economy
It is just a bit to long for my garage , but luckily it is a double garage so park at an angle so it stays 99% of the time . Getting it on and off on your on is relatively easy . Once you get the balance right by lowering the platform it slides out and back in reasonably easy . Need the bolts in the slots though . However , i wouldn't be moving it very far from where you removed it from the car
Do one that shows how to run the emergency tool so you can use a drill to run the lift up and down.
Thanks for the reccomendation, keep an eye out for that video soon!
As mental health continues to decline in America and society is becoming more dangerous, I think there needs to be more options and places to keep people "locked up" from harm either from or to others or themselves, as much as an unpopular opinion as this is. I myself might choose to go to a locked facility when I get old and I am unable to care for myself (I have no family to take care of me). When people think "locked up", they immediately think jail or prison or that the person being locked is a criminal, and there is a big stigma attached to it . Jails and prisons are usually the last place a typical person suffering from mental illness and has not committed a serious crime should be put in, and usually these places will make their condition much worse. This is why we need proper facilities for people who need to be locked up but are not criminals. And there are people who actually want to be locked up for reasons other than to satisfy some fetish.
Where to buy
First of all, some Mitsubishi Triton vehicles have a passenger side airbag disable switch. Second, airbags for small children are usually lethal when they deploy, either breaking their neck, or if they are sitting higher, crushing their ribs, both of which usually lead to death. I have no idea why its illegal in this situation to disable the airbag. Applying for approval to disable an airbag can be done, but it is a very big hassle, with lots of paperwork requiring an engineers request as well as one from the owner, or in this case the passenger, or passenger's carer, then approval from the state authority. An airbag that is disabled usually needs to be active every time the vehicle starts, requiring it to be disabled by button push EVERY engine start. Its a lot of hassle, and usually not worth the trouble, however, I'd consider not putting any of my children in the front seat, just for their safety.
I live in The UK. How do I buy a Chariot?
Hi there, It would be best to contact Bruno USA directly to find out if they have suppliers near you based in the UK!
I am seeing this in the UK. Where can I find this unit in the UK, I am very interested in this.
Hi, please contact Bruno directly to find a list of their international suppliers!
A lot of cars (atleast european) have backseat bracket just bolted to body. No need for costly fabrication, only few bolts.
This doesn’t make sense. When we drive with our feet, we push down with our feet, we don’t operate the brake and accelerator in two different directions.
