The MGA With An Attitude
LHD to RHD Dash Panel Conversion - CF-201D
A right had drive dash panel for MGA will be difficult to find. There will be very few RHD donor cars. Finding a New Old Stock part nearly impossible. There is one fellow doing cut and weld conversions for this panel, but very expensive. If you are good with welding you can do it yourself. The trick is knowing exactly where to cut, same pattern on both ends of the panel.
There will be a couple more cuts to swap turn signal switch and map light openings. The picture below shows the map light switch still on the right with the map light on the left. Note that the 1600-MK-II model has the turn signal dash indicator lamp in different location. Twin Cam and 1600-MK-II had vinyl covered dash panel.
Addendum July 25, 2023:
Now we have a video from Allen Squire in Brisbane Australia. He has also done the cutting and welding. See video for Converting The LHD Dashboard to RHD.
