You want them the right way. Not sure if it makes a difference but for how long they take to do I would want it how they should be.

its a mechanic who did it too same one i always go to ,
dunno why there on other way .
if it makes no difference i dont mind just want to know it it matters and is safe ? seems ok so far been using it all day and went fast on motorway so should be ok.
If i look through front left side of car i see the bolt not the round circle head bit of the droplink link all other pics if you see what i mean.
If i look the back side behind tyre bit at then see the whole droplink and head round bits.

They should look like this. This is the passenger side. If you aren't familiar front of the car is to the left, rear to to the right.

If you put them on the wrong way and it works, it's the right way, so it's not the wrong way anyway. If you put them on the wrong way and it doesn't work, then they're on the wrong way.
Well, I'm confused now.

Every 206 will be built with the bolts facing forwards. It might have been easier to produce them like that. They will work facing the other way though without and problems.
Different cars in the Peugeot range have different drop links to acount for different anti roll bar and strut arrangements so they can't be compared.
