So long as the thrust race is working, it won't affect performance whichever way round you fit it but for ease of access, I tend to always build my diffs so the adjusting screw hex head is on the non spur-side of the car cos it's easier to see it and easier to adjust.
So in terms of mid motor, hex head to the right but in terms of rear motor, hex head to the left.
As for the numpty feeling - don't worry - I actually asked the car's designer and I think he nearly fell of his chair laughing. His point to me was that if I was worried about it loosening off if I fitted it the wrong way, then it must also then tighten itself when fitted the right way. So I deffo felt like a proper numpty then
