Yeah, I had put it in there… really as a joke, and to catch the eye of readers. It’s pretty funny, and actually gets funnier the more you look at it. If you look at the mouseover text it says “Ur doin’ it wrong”, in case people didn’t catch the joke.
I half expect to see someone in soiled overalls saying, “Hey, Ma! Lookie here at what I gone done!”
It does reflect my thoughts on conversion vehicles, though. I think they’re amazing, and I’m impressed with anyone that can do it well, but in general I think they’re a little silly. I understand why it’s done (skirting the law), but it seems like an excessive amount of work to drive/have a RHD.
That being said, I’m lucky that I’m in Canada and _can_ buy a RHD legally (given it’s 15 years old) and don’t have to resort to insane/incredible modifications to a car.

The first picture with 2 steering wheels and 2 sets of pedals looks like it may be from a driving instructors car. Only reason I could see for doing something so silly looking to your car.

I found this handy how-to guide on youtube for putting two car halfs together. It’s not right-hand drive specific, but it should be close enough:
