Default Toyota's new handicapped mobile product in Rav-4

This is the 2nd unit I have installed on a Rav 4. I also did one last week on a Escape. The seat allows a wheelchair bound individual to transfer to the seat and be lifted into the vehicle with ease. The unit is extremely well manufactured and is very very advanced for this type of product. Unit retails for around ~$8000. Thought I would share with you guys.
