Has Anyone seen a 04-05 wrx swapped to RHD?

Just as the title says im looking for some pictures of a 04-05 rhd wrx. I dont think i have ever seen one besides a real jdm one. Does anyone know of someone with this swap?

ya, swapping would be a *****.. u need all the wiring changed over there, steering rack, differences in the engine bay to accommodate the steering and stuff...

it would be hard, but doable..

isnt that what people with gc rhd and bug eye rhd have to do? I have seen it done. Just never on the 04-05.

I forgot who did it, but I remember reading about it somewhere. It would definitely be a pain, but I don't think it should be harder than any other rhd conversion.
