I've got a car deal worth half the market price, however the car is right handed, I have reached out to a few persons they said the conversion is quite easy with getting new dashboard and complete wiring and wipers.

However, I have never seen one done before. Please experts in the house converting an honda civic from right hand to left hand drive, is it a good call or bad one? Should I let it go?

Converting the steering of a car from right to left is quite simple for most mechanics.
Just buy the dashboard, and watch how they'll finish the job. Its something they do often for some imported cars. Just that you've not seen one before.

The trouble is the wiring , pay a electrician good money so that the wires will not be messed up, the mechanical parts are the easiest to do

If I'm correct, the 2008 Civic is the one that has a 'Stealthy' look and so not commonly done in 9ja, so you'll need a reputable person to help you deal with the electrics while you source for the dashboard
