I actually had a friend look into that and minus the fact that a car cost more than just the parts. It takes a lot more to get a running and driving car from other countries.

well I have always had the idea to own a rhd mk4 I think it just looks better idk. plus while in h2o i didnt see any so id like to make that happen.

****, i have you added on facebook and i didnt even know you were doing a rhd swap:what:
facebook is a large place :laugh:

good plans, just think you should go with some different wheels
i would love to but I would rather change other things first.
