The square pocket above the glove box is on the right, but an xB has it on the left. There's an indention above the driver side peddles that doesn't exist on an xB. The cover for the fuse box is different. The switches next to the mirror controls are different, and the inside of the cubby directly below those switches is different.

And of course the speedo is on the wrong side for a xB, wouldn't that have required cutting the dash to mount?

They took a RHD NCP 35 bB and converted it to LHD using as much of the stock bB parts as possible. That is why the little pocket is on the right of the glove box opening and also why the speedo is on the right.

The layout of the lower portion of the dash is consistant with toyota bB's, but its reversed, they didn't just cut the dash in half and switch it to the other side, and its not a xB dash.

Its obviously not an xB dash because the highlighted red sections don't match. And if it was a modified bB dash, then the highlighted yellow areas would have required cutting and fiberglassing to look as they do. Example, if the dash was cut in half, the hood release should be on the rightside of the steering wheel, next to the center console. Same with the mirror controls and the fuse box cover, but they're on the left side, like in an xB. There shouldn't be plastic on the left side where the door closes because it would have been connected to the center console if it were a bb dash that was cut in half. And there should be a slop on the dash under the far right ac vent because the dash on both xB's and bB's slops down at the center console.

Was there a toyota bB released somewhere in the world that was left hand drive (besides the scion xB)? Because this dash looks like a bB dash, but it's left hand drive and looks like it was molded as such.

Cut & Glue sir.... Cut & Glue...

Toyota bB or Scion xB was never released in our country. I just imported this box directly from Japan. Since we are not allowed to drive RHD here so we converted it to LHD. That not a switch beside the power mirror controls. Its a coin holder

. One problem we cannot solve is the HL & wiper switches. It is still RHD.

BTW, thanks to sir ogerdgonz. If it wasnt from him, i wouldnt know that i got an AWD bB.

I dont think its TRD coz its TPD with the japanese font label on top of the picture.

hotweelz4me · 01-29-2009, 08:23 AM

Toyota Parts Department???

**ogerdgonz** · 01-29-2009, 10:07 AM

I still think it is supposed to be TRD and the title read it as TPD. I have never seen anything for Toyota Parts Department they almost always send out dress up items as TRD.

xBtony · 01-29-2009, 11:32 AM

^^^Thats what I thought...Its TRD..Just with weird font...Either way..I love it.

riddle_box · 01-01-2010, 09:15 PM

ScottyTuned · 01-01-2010, 10:00 PM

Cheap and JDM dont go together. Either learn Japanese (or find a translator), or expect to pay a high price. Best bet is to check classifieds.
