Default I can buy a left steering-wheel civic 4g but it must be changed to RIGHT -> is it easy

Hello guys,

I can buy a beautiful 4g Civic with right steering-wheel but here in Bulgaria it must be on the left side .
I am a communications/electronics engineer and don't understand a lot .
Please give me an advice how it can be done , is it easy , is it reliable and what are the critical moments during the installation.

I'll appreciate any type of help and collaboration. The car is very nice and it is bought from Japan.

Thank you in advance .

Vladimir

not worth it.
prohibitively expensive, IMHO (in my humble opinion).

very difficult, you need to cut out the firewall and then weld in a new one, and then have all the parts for a left hand swap.

not worth it.

It is a 4th gen. Civic with 1.6vtec engine imported from japan . I can buy it at a pretty nice price . If I sell only the engine I'll take all the money back.
Here the parts - second hand - are cheap so if I know the parts I'll know how much I'll need to buy them )). If sopmeone can give me a list with the parts I'll be very thankful .

Just tell me what I need )))


Thank you guys)
