My take on this:

RHD to LHD swaps are great when done CORRECTLY. Some vehicles are good candidates for this swap, others less so.

From the thread starter's write-up, this car falls into the category of a not-so-good car to convert, as LHD models are rare. Where will the LHD parts be sourced from? Many of the rare items are likely to be unique to this model, meaning parts from other models are UNLIKELY to fit.

I would look at other vehicles instead.

You will most likely have plenty of headaches with it and eventually end up with a serious migraine.

Aside from that, most conversion parts for this type of Toyota is not available here as this model of Toyota was built solely for the Asian market.

I am aware that this car is the equivalent of camry but with a rear or all wheel drive or the almost the same as the lexus IS (the reason it isnt sold in America I think). The dashboard is unique but if you can find a way around that, i think the rest will be easier. My take.
