HI, I'm new to your group.
Can anyone give me an opinion about changing a LHD to RHD, I believe it's not easy or even possible, but if it is, what is involved apart from changing the obvious, such as firewall, etc.
Thanks.

I wouldn't bother it is just about impossible to even buy RH drive headlamp glasses at the moment let alone then rest of the parts required.
-
Firewall, dashboard and front chassis leg all have to be changed/modified. Getting the right parts is going to be nearly as hard as fitting them.

Self cirumcision with a rusty knife might be less painful than going through this conversion. :'(

Thanks all for the replies, advice, I'm still crying laughing about the analogy to circumcision with a rusty knife. ;D
By the way, has anybody got a set of injector pipes for sale, also a clutch fluid reservoir ?

aussiebatler,
Suggest you put a wanted advert in as some people do not look at all items on the forum, others use the 'unread posts' link
By the way I have seen a left to right conversion and at the time did not pick it up. Thats how you lower the value of a LHD car and retain the low value for a non standard RHD car. costs more than the car may be worth at the end as soon as a buyer knows that has occurred.

Cheers Garry,
Thanks for that, yes I agree about the devalue. I just asked the question, but really didn't think it worth while.
