M3 Eccentic lollipop bushes

Hi All

I bought a set to replace my existing standard ones (non-M3). However, I am not sure which way they fit in. They have arrows on them but which way should they point? If you were stood from the rear of the car (with it in the air) facing the front. Does anyone have knowledge of this or an e30 M3 that you could take a picture of the control arm bushes?

Thanks
Warren

The last pic on this link to the Wiki shows how they fit.

There is a mark on the bush and a mark on the lollipop. Line them up.

This shows the marks (although they don't seem to have lined them up quite right) https://i.imgur.com/aWx1Fxw.jpg

Thanks Stones, I had previously read the Wiki & this belped me source all the parts. However, the ones the OP has fitted are not the M3 Eccentrics (hole isnt central on these) - hence the question which way up/around they are fitted.

Thanks to both of you guys. Legends. I knew someone on here would know.

I previously posted up to get the Wiki updated on the current prices as I have recently purchased most of the items and had all of them priced up. Anyone know how we can do this? Would just help any other e30 owners who are doing the same.

I’ll report back on progress.
