keep pulling at this "thread," i would be very interested in a left hand drive, japanese spec dash. The momo steering wheel would be icing after that. great find...
The Japanese airbag is smaller than the US one, so even if you can get your hands on one(which is very unlikely), it wouldn't be perfect fit.
I have just spoken to the Guy in japan that I deal with in getting parts. He said its ok to pass on his email to anyone interested in getting a japanese spec momo steering wheel. So if you are interested please pm me and i'll pass on his email to you.
Jonnie, to answer your question, no there isn't a LHD w/ 2 DIN opening.Akita-Motors <japancars@akita-motors.ru> wrote:
that lcd screen in dash is the only problem during the replacement of
the drive. There is no dash (neither for U.S. Vehicross nor
for Opel Frontera) designed for lcd screen and our mechanics
have to rebuild the LHD U.S. dash using the RHD Japan dash. That
requires much efforts and further the dash should be painted. In other
words this dash is a handmade unit.

Any idea what the dash piece cost, if I were to experiment with cutting up my dash?
You could find a dash from a Passport or Rodeo from a Junkyard and cut away. If you're going to that extent, you may want to see about modifying an Axiom dash (from a junkyard) and getting it to work.
