Go to any of the sites that sell the RHD clips and ask them if they can get one.

Who trashed talked? Im giving you advice!

Its kind of like this; if someone didnt know how to set the timing on an engine, would you trust them doing an engine swap?

If you dont know where to find a RHD dash, let alone know of any sites to find one, then you probably do not have the knowledge to do this job yourself.

Best bet is to get all of the parts/labor done at a place that specializes in this type of conversion. There are a lot of shops that can do this.

Not trashing you OP but what is honestly the apeal for RHD cars for people? The ONLY difference is sitting on the other side of the car.......Is the thousands spent on the conversion honestly worth feeling funny behind the wheel? I guess i've just never honestly understood it.

What if you frequently drop off things at the curbside mail boxes? This is ideal for that!

gspotauto.com has these all the time. The only thing is that they are located in Los Angeles. Shipping may be pricey. Good Luck.

sorry man its true. alot of people think you just bolt in a dash, console, pedals and call it a day. it is quite the task, including drilling out pinch welds and re welding a rhd firewall. if you cant even google search a few sites or shops to source a RHD clip, chances are you arent going to be able to successfully complete such a task. its not flaming, its honest opinion.
also, i wouldnt waste money on a rhd conversion unless i was already FULLY built, sittin on some sick wheels, and had a flawless exterior. its so funny, theres a guy in town with dented, shitty painted, haggard d series runnin EG with a janky RHD conversion... my point is there are probably better places to spend that money.
