also on the top of the strut (very top) i cant tell what way the bushings go in, my stock ones were flattened out real bad. pointy side down? or pointy side up? (looks like pointy side up to me but im not sure).

Hmm..can you explain this any better, maybe with some pics? If I can see a pic, I'd definately be able to help you out.

Pointy side up on a Civic/Teg. Not sure about your other question though.

I think ES calls the outer tie rod the "strut rod" . maybe that helps?

i think its the "radius rod" bushing thats front/rear strut bushing. My prothane ones were labelled like that. Look at manual pictures in the helms or haynes, it should match.
