Yes it does matter, don't install springs upside down.

i believe the closer wound end of the spring goes on the top (assuming your springs have a close wound end, mine did (Whiteline springs))

i went out and checked my springs which i remember reading a note on which way to install them, so i know they are correct, and they were installed with the close wound end on the top

it should only fit one way. one side is kinda flat and the other side is not flat. flat=top

I don't think flat = top.. the flat part should be bottom because the top part has a cushion plastic thing so it can be round.

Yeah, flat portion = bottom
