Good luck, I'm pretty sure they only made the 06 civic in sedan form in Japan, and you're going to be paying a **** ton of money, plus the front clips don't typically come with any interior parts (note I say typically, you may be able to find one with a dash), however if you can't then that's one more extremely hard/expensive part you'll have to source, not to mention dash harness, and steering wheel. It'd be pretty cool, but the job you're undertaking may turn out to be more than you can handle, however if you can do it more power to ya and good luck.

There's something suspicious about someone with that name and avatar asking such dumb questions about Hondas

I'm gonna give him the benefit of the doubt and say that he's new to the game, and sincerely doesn't know much, hey that's why you come to honda-tech right?

It's definitely weird. I've driven a RHD hatch before and the main thing I was worried about was shifting with my left hand, but I had no problem with that. But, it made me feel like a mailman lol.

i can explain it: you're just not used to it. if you drove rhd cars all your life then lhd would feel wierd. i've never driven a rhd but it seems cool, though not practical.
