	"seat_front",
	"seat_rear",
	"exhaust",
	"engine",
	"gas_cap",
	"trailer_attach",
	"hand_rest",

}
local cache = {}

function move()
	local veh = getPedOccupiedVehicle( localPlayer )
	if not veh then return end

	local model = getElementModel(veh)

	for i,dum in ipairs(dummies) do
		setVehicleModelDummyPosition(model, dum, cache[dum][1], cache[dum][2], cache[dum][3] + math.sin(getTickCount()/1500))
	end
end

addCommandHandler( "move", function()
	local veh = getPedOccupiedVehicle( localPlayer )
	if not veh then return end
	local model = getElementModel(veh)

	for i,dum in ipairs(dummies) do
