Don't know, get some measurements on where the back screw holes and everything is on yours, and I'll get some one mine. See if they match up close or not.

I've heard you can get a whole front clip from japan, and just cut out your firewall and weld the RHD one in. that would be the way to make your car RHD.... make sure whoever does it, does it right you dont want the front of the car falling off

Figure that you need to add in the steering setup in the bay, brake lines, clutch cable, brake booster setup, dash (well duh
 ), lessons about how to drive properly etc  Front cut is the way to go I'm guessing  Some of us have it easy

Oh, RHD center consoles are slightly different too, just in shape - they are the reverse of the LHD ones.

Yea, I was thinking that the easiest way would be to get the front clip front japan and weld in what I need of it. I don't think it would be that hard to drive a RHD car, all the gears and pedals are the same, just have to get used to going to the passenger side to drive. Just mainly want to do it, cause no one has hardly done it in our cars. By the time I get the money to get a front clip, I will know how to weld it on there myself. Going to college for collision repair and they teach us how to weld on clips and everything.

How many RHD 4th gens have you seen? Just wanna stand out. I know it will be a lot of money just to switch which side I drive on, but I also wanna see if I'm able to do it or not.
