Well there are 2 ways to do this.

1. Cut your CRX fron the firewall to the front. Then take a front clip from a RHD CRX and weld it together.

2. Just cut out your firewall, but leave the rest of the front on there. Then take the JDM firewall and weld it in place. Then start to put everything on the car the JDM way.

I have been in england the last 3 weeks and after driving RHD cars, it's pretty lame.

If I was you, I'd import a VTI or whatever the LHD DOHC VTEC model was for europe . All the perks, none of the stupid.

RHD works good at checkers though. the only dickfaces with a drive thru that go's on both sides of the building. so if you had rhd you could fly solo thru the fast lane.....in a sense lol

LOL cant believe nobody told him......SEARCH

I'm going to do this to probably. I dont know where to get one other then classifieds.
I DO know howeverthere's one on eBay right now thats at a LOW price, and in North Carolina I believe.

Goodluck in your swap
and RHD driving is cake, I drive from the passengerseat all the time. I may not do the braking and gas, but that has nothing to do with it. If I can drive with my left hand from the passengerside, I can shift with my left. I already drive with my Right hand anyway, so I dont see where the problem comes into play?
Oh and Rallys also has 2 sided drive thrus...
