Default steering column conversion

has anyone seen or done this. im talking about where the drivers seat is on the right side instead of the left. ive seen some S's on youtube with it but there in japan. i think itd be kinda neat, and its something not many people have/do (maybe because its not possible ) might take some time to get used to if you did have it.

im not sure about the "legality" but the easiest way to do this is by just cutting out the firewall and putting on the one from the donor car.

Is it at all possible to use the VGS on a left hand drive car?

No VGS system only avaliable on the RHD vehicle. the only thing you can do is the steering wheel conversion but that is still alot of work since its not a bolt on steering wheel. and my VGS is imported not converted

Definitely a cool mod... until you hit the McDonalds drive through.

BTW, I'm in agony every time I see a pic of that VGS steering wheel, I want it BAD.
