what legal issues?

 

I know someone with a rhd converted civic hatch, he has had zero problems with the law.

 

you can convert an xb, a civic, really anything you want to rhd. there is a few shops that will do the work from what i have found in my search. but the best way is to swap the firewall out and replace everything to the jdm firewall. the dash air condtioning box wiring and throttle cables etc.. it would be good to have the full front clip so you have all the parts. but i would never cut a good car in half and stick a front in on it.A lot of states want let it pass inspection, unless the firwall has been swapped and not the hole car chopped up due to safety crash test.

i have driven a few right hand drives of course a mail jeep (moms a mail carrier) and a friend has a r-33 skyline gts. it's fun lol a blast to drive.. a little tricky shifting but he drives it everyday. I plan on doing a firewall swap on her crv this summer. front clips for them are around 800.00 or so given they are not that common. but the rural carrries love the awd drive of the crv just need rhd. just my 02cents.

 

The Bb doesn't come in stick, It would be a waste of money, A lot of welding to do

 

Bb come with column shifters, like most American cars. The Bb has bench seats like the rear

 

It would be nicer than driving a RHD Jeep Wrangler.

 

Just in case, after a month i will have a bB 03' year coming home, witch i will be totaly parting out, and whole RHD convo will be for sale if some one would be intrested. This car has perfect interior + wood dash trim... As i dont need these parts at all - i would let them on sale pretty cheap...

Only problem is that im in Europe, so shipping might be a bit crazy, but i shipped LHD convo from USA for my celica - and shipping was about 400$ for whole parts, including steering gear / firewall / and all other heavy convo parts...

 

If you imported a bB couldn't you just weld the bumper supports from a xB and put xB bumpers on and then wouldn't it be legal to drive (excluding the other things for customs at least)

 

hey did u ever get the bb rhd conversion let me know pm or email

 

Soon enouth i will have another RHD Bb - so if anyone would be intrested in getting all the parts needed for RHD Conversion - let me know.

 

i would what kind of money are we talking looking at doing a firewall swap to the 1st gen xb to be a postal truck.

 

Dont know about the money, but i would include everything, including RHD mirrors, Dash (full), steering gear, column shifter and etc - i did lots of RHD to LHD conversions - so i know all the pats would be needed to go for RHD. Btw - after looking at Xb firewall and wirings - it seems that there would not be a lot of hastle to make RHD from LHD.

 

its close to the same on both sides lhd rhd but it would be bust to swap lhd to rhd firewall right

 

postal truck? what?

 

ya they use scions alot here but have to seat kinda in the middle to reach everything she has a crv now but hard to find rhd parts to change it over and jeeps are crap 4wd got stuck the first day out

 

doggy are u going to be parting out the entire bB?

If so im interested in a couple of things

Let me know

 

let me know when u know more
