Thanks mate, post my accident I tend to think its not the disability or adversity itself that important but more how you respond to it that counts. I took some more measurements yesterday and think if I could build a seat lifter, i..e a mechanism that on a 4 bar linkage lifts and lowers the...

The video is of a Turny seat, its $26k and it can't be fitted to a landcruiser on the drivers side. I did look at that and a kivi plate but my proposal will allow me to get into the passenger seat and better access the boot to. Plus its half the price.

I think there is quite a bit in the seat and by putting the rails at an angle I can get in with the seat right back/lowest and then move it forwards up for driving. with the air suspension it has to be engineered which is nanny state $$$ for someone to sign it off so I might as well get the...

After my accident we sold our old one to a real prick, I still remember my wife balling her eyes out as he...

I can do most things short of getting under the car. Making up a set of custom low profile rails may buy me what I am after. If I go that far low profile bucket seats would make sense.
