are eligible for importation into the
United States because they are
substantially similar to vehicles
originally manufactured for importation
into and/or sale in the United States and
certified by their manufacturers as
complying with the safety standards,
and they are capable of being readily
altered to conform to the standards or
because they have safety features that
comply with, or are capable of being

admitted into the United States if its
safety features comply with, or are
capable of being altered to comply with,
all applicable FMVSS based on
destructive test data or such other
evidence as NHTSA decides to be
adequate.
