    you sir, are very correct. the only proper way of doing a RHD conversion are to drill out the firewall and install a RHD firewall. everything else will fall in place.
    Do you have the whole front clip? dash, firewall, steering component?

    Ps, it not a 1 day project.

    . Excuse me, but do you know what need to be done on a RHD conversion. I didn't think so! If it properly installed, it will drive fine. (KEYWORD) wirewall replacement.

    Its the US. WE drive on the right side of the road not the left. Honestly besides trying to be "cool" or different what is the point in a rhd car?? I know the ones that come jdm are alot lighter because of the lack of crash protection standards and things.

    So I don't have to get out of my car just to get the afternoon mails. And so I don't have to lean over to talk to the guy right next to me at the red light.

    So whoever did your conversion literally cut the front of your car off, and welded on the rhd front clip?

    Seems more dangerous than just swapping the firewall.

    I will never understand why people want to make their cars more difficult to drive simply because people will think the car is "FACKING JDM."

    I think RHD is only really cool when its real.
