You've got an Eb clarinet built to low Eb? Pictures, please!
You can get a RH C#/G# touchpiece that clamps onto the existing C#/G# touchpiece from Stephen Fox so you can use the RH index finger to do a C-Db, G-Ab and altissimo E-F trill easier as well as B-C# and F#-G# trills.
Rarely do you see anything more than the LH Ab/Eb lever on clarinets nowadays since the major companies (Buffet, Leblanc and Selmer) have rationalised things, whereas before you had all manner of options - LH forked Eb/Bb mechanism (ring for LH finger 3), articulated C#/G# (as on oboes/saxes) and low Eb, either separately (apart from the low Eb) or all together on a full Boehm which has the lot.
