AFAIK, the iX already has a very small double servo as standard, which I'm surprised there isn't room for.
With LH drive, you don't realy have the option of moving the servo sideways, or even moving it inside the cabin, so, it'll have to be something like a fully remote servo or the steering pump driven hydraulic booster,
