Each of the end frames includes means at its lower end adapted to attachment the end frame to the side of the vehicle body adjacent the rear end and a plurality of rails extend generally horizontally between the end frames. A back rest is coupled to the end frames and positioned so that when the attachment is coupled to the vehicle the back is positioned relative to the seat such that a passenger sitting on the seat is supported by the back rest.
