Do you have any good references for RHD DA wiring? I have a friend's RHD DA in my driveway, and i'm redoing all of the wiring for the car, but rather than pin by pin go through every harness to figure out how to change everything for the RHD (Power mirrors/locks/windows/etc), i'd like to have some sort of idea where to start...

That would be awesome... I have both the USDM & JDM Service manuals, but if there is a "guide" so to speak that would be awesome.

very nice i love DA's keep up the good work and don't rush it trust me i did my rhd swap on my db8 and laast minute i changed my mind and went with a K series (and had alredy fully built my original gsr) so hell of a waste of money keep that in mind also K series swap gets very expensive!!!!

hey im in the same boat! haha didnt think anyone had the ambition anymore to convert a da over to rhd. was startin to think i was crazy for attempting it after not finding too much info and what was found was back in like 06 or 09. original firewall is almost out, starting to get stoked about it! pumped to know that someone else is goin on this long fckn journey. thumbs up duder! i plan on seeing how you do it. if ya got any questions hmu! and i will do the same obv haha.
