Can you use LHD Car Mats in a RHD car?

Hey folks,
I wasn't sure where to post this but here seemed like a good place.

Ok, it might seem like a dumb question but I'd rather ask about a bit instead of burning 50 quid.

I'm looking to buy a set of floor mats for my 350z but any of the ones I've found that I like (and aren't stupidly expensive) are all sold online from the states.

Will LHD car mats fit just as well on a right hand drive car?

Have you looked at any from this crowd:

I bought off them before & they were decent.

Yea I did find them all right.
They were gonna be a plan B.
But if I can get something flashier for the same money then it's all good

The main difference is that most car mats have a pad for the drivers heels so this would be on the passanger side if you got ldh mats.

Turn them upside down and they should fit perfectly.

Yea, I was thinking that,
But looking at the shape of the cutouts in the mats for RHD and LHD from the pictures, they looked kinda similar.

Then I looked a bit closer at the curves of the mats and saw I was being an idiot..
