Default Stock Strut Question

I am in the middle of switching my old kyb's back to my stock shocks on the rear of my Transam. I am having a brain fart but the 2 black bushings on the top does one go inside the car where it bolts down or do both stay at the bottom and all that goes inside is the washer and bolt?

On the rear shocks? Should be one inside and one outside, if I remember right.

When I did mine, I think the general shape fit either inside the car or outside. I've got the carpet out of the back of my car and can check when I get home, if no one's answered before then.
