Which of these parts do I need when installing new struts and springs?

I want to replace my struts and springs at all four corners with H&R springs, and KYB struts. Which of the following do I need? Or, do I need something else? I have an 09 SE.

I would like to, but I am trying to locate the correct parts. Since I have an SE, with a stiffer suspension than the other models, I didnt know if I was replacing the correct parts. Furthermore, I am unclear of which pieces I need... I have seen (as in my op) that there are the monroe-type boots that are already attached to the strut mount vs the KYB boot-only boots.

Then, I never see boots made for the front??? I havent looked under the car yet (picking it up tonight) but again, I am looking for what is needed. Different sites show different parts, and some seem different yet the same...like the monroe-type vs KYB rear boots.

You can reuse all of those parts off the original strut.
