Maybe the problem is one of semantics, the definition of LHD. LHD, if
I understand, means steering wheel on the left side of the dash
board. Drive car on the right side of the road.

For this definition, yes, the low beam cutoff dips on the left so as
to not shine in the eyes of oncoming drivers. The headlight cutoff
rises on the right side of the road so as to light hazards on the
shoulder (deer ready to leap onto the road, etc.). RHD cars use lamps
with right cutoff, per this definition.

BTW, I am asking the question about grille fitment for the purpose of
putting a SA 4-light grille into a pre-86 Vanagon.
