take pictures of the procedures and keep it in your car. Then get it blue tag. If you get hassle by cops, just tell them you did a conversion and back it up with pictures. I live in CA and never get hassle about the rhd when I get pulled over.

a blue tag is an alternative to a VIN number.

You can get a rivet gun at Sears, then return it when you've used it as an option. Or I'm sure Harbor Freight has one you can rent.

In Canada to do this legit you need a structural safety, and you can have a vin plaque for the firewall provided by the ministry.

i got pulled over 4 times in my my itr and my car doesn't even have a vin on the dash. The cop never trips about it as long as your not a dick to them.

Your car is only illegal on the streets when is not register or insure..But once it is there's nothing to worry about..Just keep pictures of the conversion with you if you ever get stopped just show it to then..
