Phunky's write up should definitely help you pre-determine the attachment of things, but once you get the front end up and the wheels off it's all pretty clear.
My suggestion - as opposed to buying some fancy one-off tool that you don't really need - is simply remove the spindle bolt, stick a nickel in the slot and thread the bolt in the opposite side. So, if the bolt removes from the front, re-thread it from the rear. As it makes contact with the nickel (that you placed in the slot on the back), tighten the bolt down until the spindle is spread open just enough to slide the strut out. A dab of grease or anti-seize on the side of the nickel making contact with the bolt tip will help too.
But THE most important tool to have for this job is a pair of spring compressors. Unless you intent on taking the assemblies to a shop to do the actual exchange, you can get the struts apart with some VERY careful attention. Spring compressors can be purchased/rented at most auto parts stores.
Lastly, the strut mounts are a 2-piece design that can come apart accidentally. There are about 30 BB-sized bearings in them. They come apart buy turning the 2 halves until some notches align, then they can be separated. Don't loose the bearings. I re-greased 1 of mine.
The driver side requires the removal of the brake reservoir and bracket. 10mm nuts there. Just remove the 2 nuts holding the reservoir and lean it off to the side. Then the bracket attaches to the top strut ring.
