    that's what I thought too, just want to confirm with somebody that's done it before before spending the money. especially after all those people that've bought the center console.

    Pretty sure that they are different.
    When you buy them, they usually ask to specify LHD or RHD.

    They're different, the inside pod integrates the hazard switch into the assembly so most probably would not work.

    Yeah but these are the people that charge $150 postage for an A-pillar because they'll only use a courier :\

    order 5 of each, then sell on forum....easy to sell items, and should soften the postage blow a little....just at thought....

    Having shipped an a-pillar moulding, they are pretty bulky, even if they dont weigh much..

    I'd be keen for a set of pods actually pending price. Would be keen for an a pillar pod gauge too if they're cheap enough.

    I would think it might be possible as they are basically the same shape on each side the only difference as mikkaz said is there will be a hole for the hazard switch button on the RH side pod instead of the LH pod. I was thinking of having two hazard switches to make them look cemetric but figured Id just use the RHD pods in the end.

    Now as for pricing I got mine from John at Cresta a few years ago for $35 each but a current pricing from Nissan Japan is as follows;

    LH Pod (25267-40P00) 2,669 JPY = $30.97 AUD
    RH Pod (25167-40P00) 2,242 JPY = $26.01 AUD

    Shipping would be pretty low due to small size and weight which was stated before.
