    Default Lhd to rhd conversion

    Has anyone on here converted a lhd 1.3 to a rhd? If so I'd really appreciate some info on what parts are needed and what's involved? I have a dash, steering column, pedals, mph speedo, head lights, clutch and speedo cables. I'm assuming I also need steering wheel, wiring loom? And can it be done without changing the bulkhead?

    Not done it but I'd expect to add rack to the list.

    Intersted in a photo of the bulkhead! I can't picture if they're symmetrical or not

    I can't remember his name, but there was a guy on here who converted his Nova from LHD to RHD. He worked for (or may have been the son of the owner) of this company, ACW Motorsport Plastics;

    Vauxhall Nova 3dr (Corsa A) - Polycarbonate Rear Quarter Windows (pair) - ACW Motorsport Plastics, Polycarbonate Windows

    (Why can I no longer post an actual web link on this Forum???)

    You definitely don't need to change the bulkhead. The brake servo mounting is different, so you'll need that as well.

    And the throttle pedal mounting bracket/stop is different to. Probably the throttle cable is a different length.
    To contact me please use E-MAIL to colinesmith@aol.com.

    thousands of Nova (plus other Vauxhall and motorsport parts) available.
