Default Factory spring perch setting on Bilstein shocks?

Can anyone here tell me what which notches the springs perches are set to from the factory on Bilstein shocks? In particular, I have the Neuspeed/Bilstein shocks, and I believe Neuspeed added a couple extra notches lower in the back, and maybe the front as well, but I don't recall.

Anyway, my spring perches have long since been moved to different notches on my Bilsteins (when they were originally installed a long time ago), and now I have no clue where they were set from the factory. I'm just looking to find out which notch they came set to originally.

Thanks!

I just did the install with H&R Sport springs. It appears that the middle groove is equal to stock...

Default The middle on the front and back?

The thing is, the Neuspeed/Bilsteins have more grooves than the normal Bilsteins. So which groove is middle? I guess I'd be curious to know how many grooves you had on the front and back, and exactly which groove was the stock one.
