I haven't looked, but is that for a LHD car?

Doesn't matter, Omega headlights aren't handed just flick the lever inside for lhd or rhd.

Tell that to the type approval people not that you're wrong

The Depo headlights were RHD out of the box but were easily changed to LHD.

The xenon units are a lever to switch, but believe that the halogen ones are specifically left or right traffic...

The lever inside does not make a RHD headlamp into a LHD. It just removes the lick up to the left & a make it a symmetrical beam good enough to drive the car on the 'wrong' side of the road.

Not the same, that lever just deflects a chunk of the beam pattern, in the same way a stuck on patch does. Belting down unlit(and very dark) forest roads in France was a graphic demonstration of how much less light is available. RHD lamps direct light to the lefthand kerb, and LHD to the right.

That is incorrect, all the lever does is convert a LHD/RHD light to a neutral beam pattern.  It does NOT convert LHD to RHD or vice versa.

On the Depo aftermarket headlights I have, the beam pattern becomes reversed (mirrored) when the lever is switched from RHD to LHD and the lick up moves from the left side to the right side. The beam pattern is not neutral in any position.

I cant speak for aftermarket parts, but the original GM units are not reconfigurable between LHD and RHD

Thanks, it's good to know

Headlights found defective (couldn't be adjusted high enough) and have been returned. Will not go for Depo again.
