How do I flip a part horizontally?

I started cadding a drivetrain for a VEX robot, and I've just finished one half. Only problem is, while trying to duplicate the half and then just flip it around and attach it, I've found that I can't flip the drive half horizontally. (The half on the right is the one in question I'd like to rotate, I want the motors to be facing in while keeping the drive symmetrical)

Onshape doesn't currently have Assembly Mirror. But you can vote on this improvement request here:

No idea if this will actually work but this thread was the one that broke the dam for me and caused me to develop a mirroring in place script that maintains assembly mate structure without creating new parts. I'd love to put it through more case studies to see if it works for applications like this but the initial testing has been really solid.
the drive had some other problems anyways so i scrapped it and started from scratch. thanks for your help, though.
