Could it be only (later) vehicles intended for overseas use had one guard omitted to be fitted with a bridge classification plate?

Specifically the "Defence Aid" lights orders a single front headlamp mounted on the left side but with a pigtail sufficiently long enough to mount the lamp on the right if needed.

Indeed some pictures show jeeps with the headlight and bridge classification sign swapped over. Why would they switch the headlight over to the right hand side?
Thanks,
