Noltec strut mounts

My Noltec Strut mounts arrived today (brought from ebay) very happy with them but there are no calibration marks on them?
does anyone else have some like this?
does it matter which way round they are fitted as i noticed the insert plates have a long arm one way

ok pulled them apart and put them back together correctly!!!
i can see which way they go now as there is only one way you can get the insert to move round the brackets completly with the most adjustment needed back and in as you look at the car,
next question though does the top nut have a washer, spring washer then nut on the top of the mount?

thanks

"Calibration marks" are pretty much useless anyway, as they can't just say that mark A is 2 degrees camber or anything like that. You'll need to get the car aligned to your specs, then you can mark that spot on the plates for future reference.
