The OP must be 17 because of the pure instanity of it all, and the idea that RHD is a valid personal preference and not a psychotic one.

If I was realy cookoo and wanted a RHD despite it all I think it would be awesome to import an overseas Accord Type S because then not only do you have RHD but every atom in the car would be JDM with the Honda logos throughout. That would be something fun to see on the road.
I agree with you. Cops will pull you over every time you see one and they will give you a hard time. Who cares if it's legal? At least they wasted your time by pulling you over.

Wow. This has to be one of the biggest, um, misappropriations of time, resources, and money I've ever heard of. There are infinitely many better ways to spend all of the above in ways that are less pointless than this conversion. Even if you took the money and threw it out the window, you'd save your time and everyone else you'd involve (to hopefully do better things), and somebody else would benefit from the cash in a real way.

Look, I think if having a RHD TSX as a novelty (A JDM Accord)is what you want, then import one. I think the gutting of the firewall is alot of work. Now, If you don't mind all of the work, go for it.

Here's an interior shot of my JDM 1999 Saber (a TL in the US). RHD is no big deal, and here in Japan, some people (not many) have LHD European cars. It's not that tough.
