Hey guys ive just recently picked up a rhd clip for cheap 250 with everything that's needed for a rhd conversion. My question is has anyone done this there selfs how hard was it and time consuming was it.

Also the wiring thats involved. will everything wire up the same way under the dash as my lhd because I'm wanting too keep the dcc because it came with all the ac lines for the Sr ac compressor.

Any info on wat I should be cautious with would help

Got a plasma cutter and welder already by the way

its very difficult and extremely time consuming.

your attention to detail and skill level must be extremely high, or the end result will be off.

as far as wiring...... everything that was on the left will now be on the right. you will either have to lengthen or relocate every single component under the dash.

This is one of those things where if you have to ask you should probably not be attempting it. I helped a friend do the swap a few years ago and as stated above it is not for the feint of heart. Also you may think your clip is "complete" but I can garuntee you that it's missing a lot of small hard to source parts that you won't notice or think about until your halfway through the swap.

I should also point out that while you may think sitting on the right side is cool now, living with it if you drive the car on any sort of a regular basis sucks. Ask me how I know...
