OEM FD3S Bilstein info

I have an oem set of Bilstein struts for my 3rd gen and having a hard time finding some info on part numbers. Based on photos, the front and rear upper strut shock boots/bumpstops/spring seats appear to be the same as the 93-95 part. Can anyone confirm this? The lower spring seat is aluminum but some of the photos on google images show a rubber isolator. Does anyone have the part number for the rubber piece? Any info on what spring rates Mazda matched to these struts?

Thanks

And build thread to come

Thanks! I actually started down that path. I have an extra set of base 93 so I figured I'd go the "trial and error" method. I'll chime back in when I've learned something even though this is probably irrelevant to everyone lol
