Ronan, can you please document the parts required for your rhd conversion as in dashboard, exhaust manifold /downpipe, steering rack, etc, also any tricks or difficult jobs you find, we will then put it in our reference section for everyone who is contemplating the same job, as at the moment we seem constantly to be reinventing the wheel! thanks chris s
