How much would it cost to change the steering wheel side from left to right?

i live in India and want to import a car from the US, how much would the convention cost and if i give the car to a car showroom would they do it

on most cars this is not possible it should be legal for you to still drive it tho

You can still drive a left-sided car in India (though it'll take some getting used to). Maybe you wanna look into getting a car from the UK instead, or maybe Australia, since they are made the way you want it. I think a conversion isn't worth it money-wise. It's not just the steering wheel, but also the paddles and the dash and with that so many of the other mechanics, I don't think it would be worth all the money. A dealership might, but that'll be even more expensive. Maybe a good custom-car-shop will do it.
import a car from Japan, if you must import.



checkout the import duty for a complete car. A friend of mine had a car engine taken out before importing it because the duty was a lot less for %26quot;car parts%26quot; than for a whole car.



conversion - if the car was ever sold as righthand drive then you will be able to get the parts you need. If not....
You can do it, but honestly its going to cost more then your car is worth, you would basicly have to have the entire front of the car torn out and redone, your better of buying a new car
way more than it would cost to just buy one like that.. haha thats pretty funny you asked that, you will never do it! it would be a 20, 000 + job. you have to rip the whole front of the car apart. and rearrange everything including steering lines and probably more.
you would be better off just buying a car from england. conversions are way to expensive.
I estimate 1,750
A load of money, really you should not bother doing this!
