L is driver/R is passenger?

Just pulled the front struts out of the car but didn't pay attention to sides. They are marked L and R. Is R passenger side?

Thanks.

Yea they only fit one side. More specifically, you can bolt the strut to either side but the brake lines will only re-connect to the correct side.

Left/right is always from sitting in the drivers seat facing forward.

Unless you are in the UK!!

When sitting in the car facing forward, the left is the left, the right is the right!!
