Yeah man, vujade is rigt if the company that made that dash has a rhd type, youd be in luck. If not, sorry, but maybe you should contact a few companies that make after market dashes and ask them. You might have luck with glass action, I've talked to them about making a center drive dash for my baja and they said they might be interested! Give them a try, but call or email first!

Hope that helps a little!

Hi

Because of the extreme heat we get down here many car dashs need to be recovered after they crack, I have spoken to dash restoration people and they have told me if i make up a sturdy metal frame for the guage pod they will cover it and make it look factory, just like the one in the picture.
