well you have to use a complete right hand drive bulkhead which includes top part of the floor pan

you have to drill out all the spotwelds and take the complete bulkhead off

it's not easy it's slow work

if you can't get hold of an escort bulkhead you can always use a sierra cos bulk head

Anything's possible. Though tbh I drive LHD every day, and its hardly an issue after the first 2 days. Only grief is Car Park barriers, but I don't use many of them.
