Default RHD Conversion

Hi all,



yes before anyone says this... Yes i know the genesis is LHD and has not been made RHD. I was just wondering if anyone had heard of one that had BEEN converted? I said to my missus that we should move to america so we can have both the coupe and the sedan



Cheers Ryan

Because we cannot have a left hand drive car registered in australia unles it meets certain requirements - and the genesis does not meet any. ie: classic car...

i haven't come across any, but i did read a speculation that the Genesis Coupe is coming to Britain at some point. my best guess is the interior and some of the Stage 3 phase design will be redesigned completely.

You'd have to do some custom work and use at least a steering rack designed for something else, but almost anything is possible with enough time and/or money.
