Convert Rhd To Lhd by amliyu: 4:36pm On Oct 06, 2011
Hello all,
I'm contemplating converting a RHD mercedes sprinter to LHD. I will appreciate some advice please from anyone familiar with these type of things:

. Is it worth it?
. Any Idea of who can do this and for how much?
. what are parts that are required apart from the dashboard?
Thanks.

Much depends on how much you can buy the van for, most RHD ones are cheap, sometimes the price differential between RHD and LHD can be up to £2,700 or more.

If the van's still in the UK, I can convert it.

parts required are:

01) Dash board, upper and lower sections, glovebox.
02) Power-steering rack.
03) Pedal box with pedal cluster.
04) Steering column.
05) Wiper mechanism / linkage, with wiper arms.
06) Heater / aircon box / assembly.
07) Brake servo.
08) Power-assisted steering high-pressure line (from pump to rack).
09) Modified wiring harness.
10) Euro headlamps.
11) Miscallaneous parts.

Thanks Sienna,
The van is already in Nigeria.
It appears there are a lot of items needed. Is it really worth it? It is for sale after my stuff are delivered.

^^^ In that case, you've used it as a container, it's served it's purpose. I'd sell it as it is.
