Yea sure. The strut bar is locked in place on each side by sitting on a flange, having another flange placed on the top and bolted into the car. There is then 2 bolts, 1 which has to go through the top flange, through the bar, and into the bottom flange, the other that goes through the bottom flange, through the bar, and into the top flange. They are in a X pattern.

Basicialy when you turn the eyelet holes on the bar around to be in place for the RHD side of the car the X holes line up and the eyelets face forward right at the seat. When you flip it for LHD, you cant get the X holes to align unless the eyelet holes are facing straight up.

Now you could, swap the top plates on each side, the ones that bolt into the car BUT they are side specific and dont sit right unless they are on their side. On top of that even if you do, you would still need to drill holes in the bottom plate ( the top plate has extra holes) to allow room for the bolt to now go though both.

I would post pics of what im talking about but im actually in the middle of getting everything together to go to XDC with Non Stop Tuning :P so need to finish getting stuff in the car and then get out the door. Ill thow some pics of what im talking about from the hotel tonight if i have time.
