But won't all the controls be on the opposite doors? Maybe I'm misunderstanding.

Just swap RHD JDM window and doorlock controls for USDM LHD, it's a very common swap.

Google is your friend on this one, there are hundreds of pages detailing this swap.

Just so you're aware Si hatchbacks didn't come with power lock and windows and aren't prewired for them.

Wait...grumblemarc has a point...if you use JDM controls, they'll be opposite so the driver controls will be on the passenger side. If you swap in USDM controls, how will they fit into the armrest panels? They're different size openings, IIRC?

Same size holes on both sides, so yes you can use USDM switches with JDM door panels.

Thanks for clearing that up. I'm not sure why I thought they were different sizes....maybe it's because I've seen just the controls for sale and they were different sizes.
