Have you never seen those JDM cars which are converted to LHD when they're exported? Cutting some holes in the firewall, sealing the stock ones and relocating some components is far from being rocket science. Splicing a harness might be a PITA, but it's also doable.

Oh, and that ECU likely won't work with the rest of your car's electronics so you need someone that can program it. If a manual was never offered in the USA you will need someone that code and write the parameters for your unique engine / transmission / emissions combination.

Most of the coding/programming can be distributed through the internet, as it's already quite common for purposes other than a transmission swap.
