Default Are 525i RHD and LHD parts interchangeable?

I have purchased a 2007 525i RHD from Japan. It has 113k KM. I owned a 525i LHD before and loved the car. Wanted to know if parts on the LHD and RHD cars are interchangeable? I am closer to the US and can get parts from there much quicker thank UK or Japan! Thanks for the help

Yes and no - all depends on the part.

Most engine and suspension yes, steering rack no, front interior no, headlights no (point into oncoming traffic I believe).
