The HHR is on the Driver side and the LT is on the Passenger side.
Mine are this way too!

I`m sure you`re saying this in jest, but why ???
It appears the rear of this veh. has been repaired, and the person putting the emblems on didn`t know which side the pieces belonged on. No need to besmirch an entire race of people.
The guy who put them on was probably an American.

The simplest answer is usually the correct one.

Most of the time, a human being is affixing the decals to the car during final process on the car. In an assembly plant, in the event a worker has to go take a piss break someone else has to monitor their work station. The line simply doesn't stop. Sooooo, person watching the work station for the rear hatch badges is new or inexperienced and puts the emblems on the wrong side. Every once in a while you'll also see some that aren't lined up properly or even on the wrong part of the car. There is no conspiracy theory, or design defect, it's just someone putting the stickers on wrong.

The only way to tell if the car's been in a wreck is to inspect it in person. No Carfax is ever 100% accurate.

I knew someone back in the late 70s who had a Mercury Zephyr that had Ford Fairmont emblems on the back and Mercury emblems on the front. Claimed that was the way it came from the factory.

Maybe the previous owner swapped 'em on purpose just to be different. It could be that simple! That's something I would do if I were to keep the badges on the car.
