Camber Plates

This is a dumb question, but I'm going to be installing ksports on my car soon and I don't want to mix up the front coilovers. Can someone point out what the camber plate looks like?

The upper strut mount is the camber plate.

Definetly make sure the camber plates are installed correctly. Some have installed them so the adjustment is going the wrong way. Make sure they move from left to right.

I know that the rears are the same. I just don't want to mix the front two up. I guess I'll just have to wait til they get in so I can see what they look like in person.

Yea, did you see the D2 thread about that? I think the mounts were made incorrectly turning them into caster/camber adjusters. They were mounted diagonally seeing as that was the only way they would fit. It makes me laugh actually. Ill keep my Stillen plates thanks!
