- clearly offside and nearside should only be used to describe the location of parts that switch Left/right depending on the lhd or rhd.


Exit stage nearside....
Unless it is a pre 67 (?) "Native" car in Sweden (think the op is from Sweden?) Or the car is in Myanmar (where I believe they have right hand drive whilst driving on the right)
