indexing struts w/ Tein SS?????

Okay, stupid question, but I have dissasembled my 01 struts, while Im waiting for my tein SS's to come in. However, I wasn't thinking I needed to mark them, because I assumed that was only if I was re-using the stock strut, is this correct, or should I have marked them. Does the upper mounts fit into the frame any which way, like my Hayame's or am i screwed if I didn't mark them??????

There is a specific way they fit as the holes aren't symmetrical. No you don't need to index.

once you assemble them, just rotate the mount until it matches up, i think its marked with an arrow etched into it that denotes which corner goes toward the inner side of the car.

Arrow points straight forward. You don't need to index coilover springs.
