Default 997.1 Center Air Vent Replacement - LHD & RHD parts the same?

I have a new to me 2005 C2S which I recently acquired. The center air vent is damaged (they won't move at all and some of the vent pieces are missing) and I'd like to replace it. I found a replacement in UK with the same color but not sure if the LHD and RHD interior vent assembly is identical. The UK part number is slightly different and the piece it self says "Made in Spain" (LHD version says "Made in Germany").


I've searched on the forum and online in general for an answer but can't find one. The UK part is the right color for my interior and looks to be in great shape, so I prefer to buy that one, but the part numbers are slightly different. Can anyone help me with this?


LHD air vent (from US source, part number 997 552 141 05 / 997 552 141 06):






RHD air vent (from UK source, part number 997 552 141 01 / 997 552 141 02):

The one from Spain is missing one mounting tab so it won’t sit right in the dash. It will be tilted and pushed out to that side.
