'01 Aero front spring differences--manual vs auto?

I recently purchased a pair of "recycled" front struts with springs, strut bearings, etc., complete for my '01 Aero. The new-to-me set has well under 60k miles on it, and the price paid is a very good deal for the , especially compared to a new set of struts and strut bearings.
My question is: The color code for the 'new' springs is "CK" (I believe these are for the auto transmission Aeros of that vintage) and my current springs are code "CL". Any potential big problems with handling, etc., once installed? Am I better swapping my original springs over? Or is it no big deal (and would be a whole lot easier project)?
Thanks in advance,
Paul in Iowa City
