DDS Shifter question

[GASBNR]

Does anyone know if its possible to turn a LHD shifter to RHD? and how?
I just got one and am hoping its easy just to undo the screw and turn bit like my BERG locker

Hope this is in the right section,

Thanks in advance

I don't think soooo.

It is possible but you'll have to butcher the inner part of the dds handle.
There is a steel ring molded into the plastic handle.
This steel ring has a spline. If you want to make a right hand drive shifter, you will have to shave this spline and turn the handle. But this spline hold the handle in the good position and strenghts it : if shaved, the handle could be loose on the shifter and probably handle will crack easier.

I asked this same question a while back - I now have a DDS shifter (in LHD) I've looked into swapping it over and as guillaume says you have to modify the "Inner" part of the shifter - once you have the handle removed it will make more sence, basiclly the button pushes a small lever which lifts the lockout pin and if you want to convert it over to RHD then this lever will need to be turned through 180degs - Not simple but it can be done

As Monkeyboy said, the small lever can be turn heasily. By the way, whatch out because their is a small white plastic part that can broke easily. Then, you'll have to shave the spline inside the handle. but be prepare to have cracks and a loose handle ;-)
