Yup - it's LHD only, at least on the ur-quattro. On RHD ur-quattros, the MC is
mounted backwards on top of the steering column. There are no hex (Allen)
bolts - they're normal 10mm hex head screws and nuts. The issue is stopping
the nut rotating - you have to either drop the pedal block _completely_, or
laboriously assemble a 1/4" drive 10mm socket, 15mm extension and T-bar piece
by piece on each of the nuts.
I think the kit list is about complete, with a minor selection of screwdrivers.
