OEM shocks - Left and Right the same?
As the title states
hondaautomotiveparts.com shows only one part number for the front shock absorber. Normally I would assume this means the left and right are the same, however the description for said shock reads "SHOCK ABSORBER UNIT, R. FR." which would indicate it is for the right side.
Thoughts?

Re: OEM shocks - Left and Right the same?
That's what I thought, but why would the website only list one? I called them and they told me they're the same. I'm just trying to figure out if they're lying to me for simplicities sake or if they can be used interchangeably.

Re: OEM shocks - Left and Right the same?
Because I already had an order together for a bunch of other stuff and it was easiest to add the shocks onto it. Plus as time passes my trust in OEM parts increases.
Point is, I now have two shocks delivered and I'd like to know if they need to be exchanged before the car goes in the air and everything is taken apart. If there is a reason this site only offers one P/N, I'd like to save the hassle of the exchange.
Any other experiences with this??
