But I can.

They're exactly the same.  RHD ur-quattro brakes work using a pushrod from the pedal frame
mounted on the right hand side of the car, passing behind part of the heater and operating the
brake servo/master cylinder combination exactly as if a local (lefh hand side) foot pedal had
been used.

The only minor delta is that our clutch master cylinder is not fed from the brake fluid
reservoir but from a silly little pot under the windscreen.
