Throttle cable - LHD?

After reading the spares thread, went off to GSF and grabbed a spare throttle cable.
Was rather pleased with myself for being so organised, only to get home and find out I had the the RHD cable. There is no mention of RHD / LHD on the GSF website, so hadn't thought to check.
Anyway, Can the RHD cable be turned upside down to work in LHD, I guess not but....
Have since search Brickwerks, who do mention RHD but don't seem to have a LHD T25 '88 cable listed

the difference is length
from memory the rhd is about 4inches longer
also petrol /diesel , manual /auto , injection /carb , water Aircooled are also different

They don't have one for a LHD manual diesel that I can see.

I picked up a spare from Gunzle when I passed by this year......If you're in deep, deep doo-doo you can have mine, I'll get another.
