Default air con' condenser - different for lhd/rhd vehicles?

I've been told that the air con' condenser on my 1995 X300 4 litre is leaking.
I've looked around for these on the 'net and some I've seen are specified for left or right hand drive cars and some do not mention it.
Is the left/right driving position important with these units or not?
I obviously don't want to order one and then find it doesn't fit!
Thanks in advance.

As far as I can determine, NO, and I can see no reason why that would come into any parts mobs enquiry, other than the fact they have NO idea, so include it to cover themselves??

My reasoning is:

The drier is still under the radiator top panel, and the compressor is still on the RH side of the engine, and the pipes still travel up the RH side of the engine bay.

I think it is much like radiators, the hoses etc are in the same place RHD or LHD.
