The rear top mounts are different so they arent interchangeable.

I dont know if the coilovers you have will accept standard top mounts. Most coilovers need specific mounts to mate up with them. Im sure theres another slight difference with the bottom mounts too, something to do with the brake hose fixing but thats something and nothing.
