Question Question for right-side Cayman drivers

I couldn't confirm this with a search in this forum, and the Porsche UK site conveniently shows left-side drive cars in the gallery.... Anyway, in a left-side drive car (US, in my case) when I sit in the car facing forward the windshield wipers are anchored near the left A pillar and in the middle of the car. Are they reversed in the UK? My mind tends to wander when I wash my CS, and I got to thinking about the airfoil on my driver's side wiper. I know you folks have the airfoil too, but that would only really make sense if the whole wiper assembly was swapped to the other side. Sorry for the goofy question, just curious.

They are reversed - anchored on the right hand side of the car.

They have to be to ensure the driver side get's the 'full' wipe
