There are two things to consider for that.  On my MA-3, there is only 
one connection point for the mixture, so an intermediate linkage 
would need to be fabricated.  The other consideration is, would the 
passenger need to adjust mixture?  I certainly don't think so.  I 
also did not duplicate the carb heat control on the passenger 
side.  Again, I do not think that it is necessary.
