RHD dash for Golf

Oct 09, 2008 4 Replies

I have a Fujimi Golf V GTI.



Does anyone make a RHD dashboard?



Thanks Craig


Of course, in the US this is called a Rabbit :-)

It is called Rabbit again?!

True, it was called Rabbit back in the 80s and probably early 90s. Then they re-badged it as Golf (well they actually *stopped* re- badging the original car for the US market). I now see plenty of contemporary VW Golfs on the US roads.

Funny that you now mention Rabbit - today I just happen to be behind a mid 80s Rabbit (Diesel, no less) waiting at an intersection. The body was in surprisingly good condition (as I live in the "rust belt") but it was repainted in a lovely shade of sea foam green. It sounded and stunk like old Mercedes, spewing dirty diesel exhaust. :-)

As for your original question - sorry I can't help you. Didn't Fujimi make a Japanese (RHD) version of that car model for the Japanese market? They usually do that.

One of my son's cars was a Rabbit. My father picked it out for him and I was asked to test drive it and give my opinion. I could only have loved it more had it been a stick.

The poor car was soon hit by a van and that left a deep 'V' in the front end, bending the framework and crushing the radiator. That ended its career as a whole car.

I had a '75, still burned regular. Pumpkin orange, nimble if not fast, but could 4 wheel drfit like a sumbitch.
