Great Adrian,
It is always a great help to everybody when someone takes the trouble to report back on an eventual outcome.

Yes Mike agree with you and without your help and parts, Adrian would no doubt still be scratching his head on how to do it.
He has done well on that job and described it well. So pleased mine is RHD. Tell me his last point of changing over the small intent plates, are they not all like my originals on the left side of the car anyway so do NOT need changing? Or have I got confused by what he meant there?

Adrian,
I know mine are original on the left side so don't change to the right till you have more confirmation they are all on the left side.

Hi Adrian
Mike and Roy beat me to it, here is a picture of the data plate from my 59 RHD, a car you know quite well.
