HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENT EVERYONE: Okay rotorheads, go out and look at the little arrow on top rim of your stock struts and report back here on which way they point! Go! Do it now! please..... Maybe we can get some sort of consensus.
Thanks!
Mine was set to:

From this page:

If the top of the strut is leaning toward the rear of the car, then the caster is positive, if it's leaning toward the front, it is negative.
