TX Looking for knowledge and/or advice

I have a 93 FD. It was converted to a right hand drive. It has automatic mirrors and the left mirror (now passenger side, was drivers side) doesnt adjust to an angle where I can see out of it correctly. I would assume that means it needs to be a RHD passenger mirror. Is that accurate or is there an adjustment I can do.

Thanks,
Jacob

You need to get the mirror from a RHD car.

Needs a lot of little things and detail work. Fun car for sure. This is my second one and I love these cars. There's nothing else like them.

Not really into the jdm rhd swap thing...But definitely a unique setup with fender lights, PFS bumper, and old school wheels. Period correct stylings for an s6.

Thank you, a lot of people on here have been frowning on the RHD in the states but I've had no problems at all. Drive through's, banks, etc. I just back in, people look at me funny but it's not really any big deal.
