Left Hand Bridge?

I just bought a 4001 tailpiece and bridge (from Marc Seligman) and didn't think about the fact that the 4001 I am restoring is a lefty. I notice that the RIC parts catalog shows two different bridge part numbers -- a left and a right.
Is there any real difference between the two?

it is all how the saddles are installed ...

OK, it looks like the saddles can be moved rather easily. Wonder why RIC shows two bridge models if it is merely a matter of mirroring the saddles?

yep in 10 minutes you can turn a lefty into a righty with a screw driver ...
