iceblue is the man you actually want to ask thse questions to.. he has a whole thread w/ pictures on how he did it... and lemme tell you, after you look through it, you just might second guess yourself on the whole deal!
i purchased a fill rhd clip w/ full intentions of doing it also, but after further research..and just plain getting smart.. i scrapped the project!
but hey, if your still going to do it, i have everything you need for $500

That is my point in asking you if you have the means to do this. The VIN question is an obvious answer upon inspection of your own car into detail of performing this conversion.
It sounds like you are dreaming into the future without even knowing the present work needed.
vipers - can you send me some pics bud? I am thinking of stocking RHD conversion parts at my shop for customers that may want it.
