Many drivers when importing their car from America to another destination will elect to have it converted a right hand drive. When trying to locate a right hand drive camaro conversion company there are a few things to consider beforehand. In most countries it is not illegal not to modify the car but it does make driving easier and it can make it more convenient having controls on the right.

The task of changing a vehicles controls is not a case of moving the steering and foot controls. Things such as vents and safety belts will also need to be relocated to the other side. Other major components such as braking systems and suspension springs may need to be modified or moved before the car can be used on the roads and be safe to drive.

The first option when you are converting is to purchase a kit from an auto store or online supplier and do the job yourself. This can be cost effective and there are many kits offered for sale that are tailored for the Camaro model. It is worth bearing in mind that many of these kits are fairly basic and when the job is done some of the changes may be visible to the occupants of the car.

There are a lot of web retailers who supply the kits and after some research the correct one can be found. They will usually be sent overnight and should arrive at your address with the instructions and contacts should you need any advice. It is worth noting that some of the work may require special tools so it is worth checking with the supplier before purchasing a kit.

The best way to get a conversion done is to give your car to a company who can do the specialized work. There are companies who specialize in this work and the results should be of a high standard. It will cost a lot more than the kit but it is worth it as the work will be covered by a guarantee.

When you use the services of an engineer to do the work much higher standards of finish will be achieved. All of the parts will be invisible to the occupants and in most cases the vehicle will look as if it was originally that way. One plus point of using these firms is that they will continue to offer maintenance for the car after the modifications have been finished.

If you do the work at home or give the car to an engineer it is essential that all of the mechanical work is inspected for correct operation. Most companies will hand your car back with the paperwork and certificates to say it is safe and road worthy. If your car does not have these or you have modified it in your workshop it can later be examined by a technician and all of the relevant documents can be issued.

When making any alterations to a car, any warranty offered by the maker will no longer be valid. Another point is that the retail value of the car may be lower, and it will be harder to sell as it will not be original. With any modifications to a vehicle you should notify your insurers of these changes as there could be a change in your annual payments to them.
