Its super easy and is almost identical to the passenger side after cutting and rewelding. Do you remember if I posted about it?
Basically I cut the pillar in about 5 sections and flipped them over and to the left then rewelded them together, the 5 sections are all straight when cut and then when flipped they make a mirror image.
Inside the B pillar is a hing reinforcing plate, I did the same with it but cut it in 3 section I think.
The hinges I just flipped over and drilled one new hole on the door side to match my million piece door.

If I didn't post about it, I can do it and number the sections with pictures.
The upper half (door frame section) of the B pillar I just used as is, the seam is in the front vs the rear on the other side.

Just ask if you have any questions about what I did or what I might have done differently.

Sounds like you have a great plan and a good start.
Randy
Thanks for that info.
I studied your build extensively
for quite awhile.
I don't remember those details
in your build.
I have a back log of pics now of stuff
That I have been mocking up.
So I can understand how it wasn't.
I can almost picture the reverse flip now.
But like they say your pics would be worth a million words.
Thanks
Dwayne
