Question for delta touch2o faucet owners

We just had our Delta Addison Touch2O faucet installed but I forgot to tell him that I wanted the handle forward. How involved is it to do this myself? The faucet is fully installed. I remembered right after the installer left, naturally. Do I just need to loosen the one brass nut under the center faucet part, twist the faucet and tighten it again? I know the hot/cold will be backwards but I can swap out the supply lines at the valves (if my family can't deal with it being backwards). Thanks :)

LOVE my Delta T2O!!!! Sorry I can't answer your technical question, but is it really necessary to switch? I just put my handle in one position and operate it via the touch 95% of the time. Maybe you could live with it a while and see if you really need to switch.

You know, I think you're right. When I first decided to put the handle forward (during my research) it was when I was considering a non touch2o faucet. So far we haven't needed the handle other than adjusting the temp (darn kids like to wash their hands in cold water. wth). Sometime this spring our builders are supposed to fix a crack in the wall behind the sink so if they have to remove the faucet to do that (because this faucet is HUGE) I'll have them reinstall it with the handle forward if I decide by then that I need it that way.
