The Basics Of Right Hand Drive Conversions

By Mary Powell


Over years, many people have engaged in endless argumentation on the way positions of drives in cars are changed and diverted from one side to the other. Majority of the people claim that when changing the positions, only the dashboards and steering wheel are transferred or alternated to the other side and others assume that the chain-drive process is usually adopted. The latter is however, inferior. According to evidence from companies that make right hand drive conversions, the mirror image process is what is used. It entails making new parts in resemblance with those that initially existed.

This whole process however cannot be executable if contradicts the provisions of the law, as stipulated in the National Code and Practice Act and further, the Vehicle and Safety Standard Act. There are a host of events that are usually involved in the process of successfully converting drives sides.

Consequently, air conditioning is done. Many people presume that only the steering wheels position is changed, but this is not really true. A lot of other practices are mandatory, in the process of converting drives. It is at this stage that conversions are molded and heated from left to right side, and is considered the most strenuous part of the entire process.

The next stage involves air conditioning. This is whereby heating is done from left to right sides of the drives. This stage is arguably the most grueling and tasking, of all the stages. The heater box that is usually on the drivers seat, in this case the left side, has to be transferred to the right side, in such a way that it fits in accurately. There are people who have been of the opinion that converting drives in cars basically entails changing only the steering wheel, but this step clearly disputes those contortions.

Then, rattling components or parts that produce squeaks are eliminated from the dashboards by dint of extra body deadeners that have the ability to mold up and heat metals into new intended forms and shapes, for resemblance. Ultimately, the parts end up resembling those that initially existed.

Another measure that is usually undertaken to minimize on instances of misfit, mismatching and other mistakes during replacement processes, is part numbering. This ensures all the parts are placed exactly where they are supposed to be.

All these and many more measures are usually taken with the ultimate intention of ensuring uniformity, cohesiveness and conformity, at the very end of the conversion process. Spot-on quality is also ensured during production, and motorists desires of having their drives alternated from the left to the right sides, are fulfilled.

Performax Limited and RHD Vehicle Converters are some of the most notable companies offering conversion services. They are of great value to drivers uncomfortable with their car drives being left-sided, and are contemplating converting them to the right hand side.
