Interesting! I've studied the RHD Packards quite a bit over the years and the only RHD V8s I'm aware of were converted by their London dealer, Leonard Williams. There is a roadtest of one of these on this website somewhere. They did not have the under-dash heater because it was in the way of the steering column, but they had the underseat heater, don't know what they did for a defroster. Also to my knowledge only a couple were converted, all Clippers.

ECAnthony - was that RHD conversion done down under, or perhaps is this one of the Leonard Williams conversions? if you know. Any details about the heater/defroster arrangements?
