No, they can both be used either way. They come apart and you can rotate the inner piece. This design was flawed (they broke inside), and they replaced it with a new mount that can be used either way without taking them apart. Garmin will send new mounts to you if you tell them you have the old mount.
Edit: the new mounts have thicker release tabs, which also commonly broke. I probably went through about 10 of the old mounts, but I've been using a new mount since it came out and have not had any issues with it.
