They should be on them somewhere, if unsure google part number for each and the number will dictate left and right.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong but you should be able to read the letter indicating right or left when set on the block. It should not be backwards.

Probably a little late to the party but there are some good pics in this one that show proper placement. Saved me when I replaced mine.
