Do you need to provide evidence for adaptations to a motability car

I've looked on the site (and elsewhere online) but can't seem to figure out if you need to provide evidence for adaptations to a motability car, or if you can only have adaptations that are to help things that are explained in your PIP award (i.e. you have to have scored points in the moving around category)?

I will have to see if I can get information from car people...
PIP said my condition is "too varied" to give me any points, but it wouldn't be safe for me to drive without hand controls because I have a joint condition that causes a lot of pain and instability, especially in my leg joints, so I wouldn't necessarily always be able to use the pedals, but I wasn't sure if I could get away with a doctor/specialist letter rather than a description in my PIP entitlement
