It only applies for 15 years and then you can do whatever you want (but still need to comply with rules like having Canada-legal tires and glass)
My last shop got shit on because we failed a RHD RX-7 for not having a Neutral safety switch on the Clutch Pedal on a freshly imported car. It says it right in the book, and does not have any exemptions. I did some googling and there are a handful of kits out there.
As for the Windows, its almost impossible to get Canada legal windows on cars that were never sold here (skyline) but you can buy a sticker to trick shops. There is no way to test the window so if we see the sticker during an inspection, thats good enough.
What’s a canada legal window sticker ? Cause I guarantee you most auto glass shops install some pretty jobber chinese glass that have never seen any sort of certifications if you ask me.
