An incredibly convenient switch provides power to either the accelerator ring or the gas pedal, allowing ambulatory drivers to drive the vehicle. All installations are performed with minimal impact on the vehicle's existing operating systems.
Guidosimplex All-in-One Driving Controls
The Guidosimplex All-in-One is a unique mechanical brake and accelerator column mounted on the right or left of the steering wheel. No more of the tedious push and pull mechanism that hits your leg, or rods that impede your ingress or egress from the vehicle. The electronic radial accelerator and forward push brake lets you accelerate and brake in your vehicle with only a minimal rotational movement of the hand. There is no dashboard cutting required to install this device and the multiple adjustments in angle and in length allow this device to be installed in almost any vehicle. This device interface also features infrared remote circuitry in order to activate the vehicle’s secondary controls. There are three versions of this lever depending of the type the handle: America (knob handle), Quad Light (handgrip handle) and Quad Support (handgrip handle with support).
Guidosimplex Brake Lever
This new Long-Arm Brake Lever represents our most up-to-date generation of hand control levers. Made entirely of aluminum and coated with embossed rubber, this convenient and durable lever integrates perfectly with the vehicle's interior. Can be installed for either the right or left hand. This innovative design also features a mechanical lever or button that will automatically lock the brakes so hands are free to shift the transmission.
Sure Grip Push-Right Angle Hand Control
The Sure Grip Push-Right Angle hand control utilizes a body that doesn't pivot or move when the accelerator is applied. This is different from other Sure Grip products in that the pivot point is on the left-hand side of the wheel and only the handle is able to pivot. The many benefits of the Push-Right Angle hand control are increased leg room, full acceleration without hitting the drivers lap, and easier two handed contact with the steering wheel.
