Anyone seen a bicycle sidecar/trishaw kit?

I would love to have a temporary people mover attachment to fit a bike.
I see photos on the web (overseas) of these great rickshaws that are
just bolted to the side of a sturdy bike. The great benefit of this
design is that the peddler is not left alone up front, like they are
with a trailer/chariot rickshaw. Has anyone every imported sidecars to
the US? A couple hundred could be sold to people going to Burning Man.
I'll buy one!! (I really like the flimsy two passenger "sai kaa" from
Rangoon, but the Singapore Trishaw looks great too. (what I know is
from the great book "chasing rickshaws" by Tony Wheeler (lonely
planet). Maybe someone could make a collapseable version stateside.

Any leads?
