Is there some way we could change the internals so that it runs the opposite way?

Sorry mate I have a new Type 3 one,a couple of used type 3 and a couple of 60's 3 bolt beetle units that the cable pulls from the right,theoretically I should have a couple of S bug ones but they are being elusive. You might try vintage as they are sure to have one.
