Right hand drive
I'm probably asking to get flammed here, but could something like this be used to convert my car into a right hand drive?

Re: Right hand drive (DOHC4life)
I'm not talking about cutting my car in half and then sewing that piece on... I was wondering more or less if you could just switch the parts from that front end into mine to make it RHD
has anyone ever attempted anything like that?
or is would it just be way to much to even attempt

Re: Right hand drive (Dimi)
hey WTF he wasn't talking about me! He was talking to the other guy, I just didn't know what it meant. But thanks for the kickin' me some knowledge Dimi
Anyways, I think that a RHD conversion is just a waste. But hey if you like it and want to go through w/ it, go for it.

as far as the structural strength of the car... if you weld bars in to hold key pieces in place, then start your cutting and then reweld the things back in, they no.... remember, the metal surrounding the welds is weaker than the weld itself... assuming its properly done.

Re: Right hand drive (sohcvtec1995)
Im in the middle of a RHD conversion and yes that is the clip you need to do you conversion and the firewall is spot welded in just spray aircraft pain remover on the spot welds and grind of or chisle off the seam sealer then drill out the spot welds . It is long & though process but worth it . The rhd firewall is spot welded back into your car and re-sealed then replace everything back on suspension interior etc.. Dont let people bring you down for what you want to do . Just make sure when doing this project someone really knows what there doing . I am converting my 92 civic si. Ryan

Why would you remove the paint off the spot welds before chisling them off?
whats the point?

Re: Right hand drive (hadehatch)
why? waste the money in this...this is just a form of rice, form over function unless someone can explain to me that with the steering wheel on the right is faster. Spend your money on what you wanna spend it on...
