R, SPG clipped to the right shoulder not the left. Clipping to the right doesn't interfere with stages as it just crosses over and follows the same path as your drysuit. Another option is a nice little trick that Jim Wyatt showed me a while back and that is to run the SPG on a really short hose and have it inside of the corrugated hose on your inflator. Follows the inflator straight down and you don't have to deal with clips. Works really well.
I'm super lazy and when I turn my sidemount regs into independent doubles I just leave the 9" hoses on them and they lay against my shoulders. Not quite ideal location for them in super cold, but in warm water it works well enough to not want me to change the hoses out. I am a big fan of the Jim Wyatt method though, I'm sure he wasn't the first, but was the first I saw do it.

Image is too big to upload, but you can see where he runs the SPG in the picture pretty well
