nothing needs to be cut out to convert, its interchangeable can be used with both rhd and lhd, my buddy is in the middle of his rhd swap right now.

There has been a hand full of people on [240sxforums.com](http://240sxforums.com) who have converted their LHD firewall to RHD… its pretty damn simple. You cut some new holes on the right side for the master cylinders and then a whole for the steering column then you get a couple small pieces of steel plate and cover up the 3 holes on the left side where everything original was…
Pretty much the “only” part you actually need is a RHD steering rack (or vis-vera if you wanna go RHD - LHD)
But removing the fire wall and welding in a new one isnt exactly a good idea for quite a few reasons which most people should be able to figure out on their own…
