With the input disabled, he (she) can turn and look, but will not be able to shoot, get out, or change weapons (in the case that said player is not in the gunner seat). I'm not sure if there's a way around that.

Also make a continuous script that checks to see if the seat the player is in is empty, if it is empty, just load the player into that seat again. Of course you'll also need to build in an if check to stop the script from running once you want the player to get out of the gunner. However, if the player really wanted to get out of the gunner seat, and kept pressing the exit key, he would glitch a lot, because of being forced in over and over again.
