Default kids in a 2 door help

Ok, has any body found a good handle for down low to help kids pull themselves up into a 2 door? My kids (ages 5 and 7) keep pulling on the pocked on the back of the seat, I need a better handle for them.

A think rope knotted several times attached to either your top grab handle or your head rest pole.

There's a guy on here that did that, others have added in removable steps, and other rope like grab things hanging down.

I've seen a paracord grab Handel attached to the a pillar and the back of the head rest should work

Thanks for the ideas but I need something down low. Either off the B pillar or seat track. The kids are short and climbing into the back. The seat back pocket is actually a good spot for them, but it is going to tear off if they keep it up.

I've seen a jeep that used a water ski bar/handle. Kept it tied to under part of seat and threw it out of the jeep so kids could use it as a stirrup. Similar to getting on a horse. Sounds like a good idea and I'll give it a try when kids get older. I still have to pick them up to get them in the seat.

I can only think of making one....

1) Find a suitable mount point at both the cage above/behind the headrest of the front seat and the bottom of the front seat.
2) Get some para-cord and do a triple line (start at top, go down, back up and down again) and on the last way down tie some knots every 6-8 inches.

You can probably figure something out with some carabiners to hook the top and bottom to the Jeep. The kids could practically climb up it like a rope climb.
