AU version (Right-hand):


The armrest/cubby cover opens towards the passenger seat also. In Germany they have left-hand drive vehicles so I'm assuming it was designed for left-hand and I'm not sure how I feel about it not being flipped for right-hand vehicles.

Would be the same issue for the below countries that are right hand drive:
UK, Indonesia, Thailand, South Africa, Singapore, New Zealand, Malta, Malaysia, Kenya, Japan, Jamaica, Isle of Man, Ireland, India, Hong Kong, Cyprus, Channel Islands, Caribbean Islands, Pakistan, Samoa and a few others.
At least the support piece for the console on RHD models is flipped over to the passenger side....
