Amazing work so far. Congrats! I can only imagine how much work is going into making these dash parts. Just out of curiosity; How is the steering setup been converted to RHD? Would you be able to give a peek in your next video if it fits? I'm still happy I got a LHD KITT, it's easier for the parts ;)

Thanks so much! I really appreciate the kind words. When these cars were imported into Australia, some were left LHD but some were converted to RHD - Some of the conversions completely mirrored the LHD cars moving the brake booster to the driver side etc (which is how mine was done) others just moved the steering rack. I will be showing the engine bay in coming videos (as I will be retro fitting a LS engine) so KITT has a little more get up and go haha

I left the stock engine in my last KITT too. But, I plan on keeping this one forever so I am going to make it drive like a new car. There are ALOT of hoops to jump through here in Australia too, to make it all street legal. But, I think it will be worth it in the end :)

Could one of these be made to fit into a right hand drive mk3 ford capri

It is designed for the 3rd gen Trans Am - but I can’t see why it couldn’t be tweaked to fit other cars 😊

Interested in making my own right hand drive dashboard, switch pod, upper consoles, and lower consoles if you could offer any help it would be fantastic as i am also trying to find out what size screen the season 3/4 dashboard is, as i am finding it hard to find the parts i need as i live in the uk

The RHD market for Knight Rider parts is non existent, this is why I thought I should go the extra step this time and start to sell the RHD parts worldwide. I will be offering these RHD parts in the coming months. I already have another 2 customers interested from the UK. The screen size is 8” in season 3/4
