Can rhd pedals be used in lhd?

I can't find a clutch and brake pedal assembly anywhere except from overseas. I'm wondering if rhd pedals will work in lhd fd's. I like the aluminum pedals and would really like to get my hands on them but I've gotta make sure they're gonna bolt right up and be angled correctly and all. Let me know please.

Sorry bud, I have parted a couple rhd fds now and this just does not work. The mounts and angles are wrong. I believe the gas pedal is the only one that crosses over.

Ok. I just wanted to see if someone possibly made them work. Thanks for the input.

I have RHD pedals on my converted FD. the angles are wrong so the brake and clutch pedals are way to much over to the right. i have about 1" between the clutch and gas pedal.

No matter what a shifty seller might say on the parts forum, no, they won't fit and you can't modify them to make them work.

They're getting harder and harder to find and when you do see a set come up for sale it doesn't last long. It'd be great if some aftermarket companies could make some since there's a pretty decent demand.

I dunno if they do or not. I haven't even looked for aftermarket pedals. I'll have to see if I can find them then see how much they are. I wouldn't mind the pedal setups from wilwood but from what I hear they're a PITA to setup and all. They do look sweet tho.

I found a set last year, keep looking they pop up. Also post a add on the WTB section.
RHD will not fit! People will tell you they will but they will be in the wrong place and you will have to do a lot of welding/grinding. The steering column is the biggest issue.

I purschased a RHD clip a few years back and it wouldn't fit. If you're serious about getting a set, I'm planning on parting out my 94 FD project I just bought.
