Help ID tacoma coils

I recently acquired three sets of coils and shocks removed from 2014 Tacomas at a Toyota dealer. I have two different types as shown in the picture:

I am planning to use the thicker set on the right along with a 1" daystar spacer. I am not sure which side should be the drivers side. I know that one should be a ~3/16-1/4 inch longer and that would be the drivers side coil. I stood them up side by side and couldn't tell a difference. I will take a tape measure to it as soon as I can find it.

Anyone have insights on the way the taco coils are color coded?

the first pair looks to be a trd sport set of coils and the others are the basic 4wd coils from what i can tell. i have the trd off road coils on 5100's at .85 and i also had no clue what was the drivers side coil. i did a lot of searching online to figure it out. the great thing for you is you can go to a dealer and look at the trucks on the lot to compare the color codes. hard thing is different years have different colors and i got lucky putting the right one on the drivers side on my truck
