Swift Spring install question

I agree. They are definitely upside down. The spring won't seat properly because of this. Not seated=spring not properly place in strut or housing so the spring isn't parallel to the strut or spring, tilted. I would be interested to see if the ride height at each corner is the same. My bet is that they aren't the same. Easy fix but I won't trust that mechanic with any else from here out.

Take a look here, not the same spring, but nice pictures for comparison.
