Lightbulb right hand drive?

does anyone know where i can get a right hand drive conversion for a 2007 civic si, as a fun daily commuter, i purchased the civic, and decided to work on it in my spare time, ecu tuning, cams, intake and valve swap, but i would like to make it one of a kind in my area.....hence the need for RHD interior swap. i've been surfing the web and i'm not having very good luck. any info would be greatly appriciated,


-Brandon

The body of the car is made differently for right hand driver. It's not a bolt on swap.

i'm aware that it isn't a bolt on application.lol. i've been trying to do this project for a while. and the sarcastic picture was a nice touch, made my day. and as far as wanting to import a RHD........i have a site that has a nice selection of JDM cars (http://www.osakajdmmotors.com/index.html) try that.lol. $10k for a sweet ride, but i'm currently paying on my civic. anyways. if you happen to come across parts, please pass the info on.

My other brother works in a JDM pick and pull, i could ask him how much and how long it would take to get here.

But my 2 cents, its really not worth it.

Seriously, this may have been the "cool" thing to do shortly after the first F&F movie, but no one cares anymore. The only time I'm impressed with anything RHD is when I see a classic Rolls/Bentley or something like that. But at that point, it's got NOTHING to do with the fact that it's RHD anyway.


Not to mention the added annoyance of going through a toll road, bridge, McFatties drive thru, etc..



Just get a fast car, thats a trend that will NEVER die

RHD + drive thru = reverse.
