Did not think they would be available in Japan, as most things seem to be petrol there. Although if they were it would make things easier in terms of right hand drive. The ones I have seen so far have been in Germany but seem to go for a lot more than the petrol ones over here.
On another note, if I were to import a Jimny from Germany, am I right in thinking there would not be too much involved with converting it to RHD? Do I just need another steering rack, dash and extend wiring loom, reposition master cycinder etc? Seems easy enough for parts as there seems to be plenty on Ebay. Any thoughts?
