No company is offering turn key. Some Irish sent their cars to electric classic cars in Wales, but they have a 2+ year waiting list, and you are probably looking at 40,000 euro plus.
There was diy training courses in Arklow and there is kits for specific cars from UK such as mini or beetle.
In terms of low cost nothing is really available but there is half a dozen UK companies offering classic car conversions.
What car are you looking at and what budget and range? Most conversions are short range with only AC charging 7 to 22kW Max.

Hey thanks. So Philip from AVA got back to me very promptly. He said that bar it's a classic he doesn't know of anyone that converts normal older cars.
