Series 1 front Sway Bar links? EL?

[Crazy Dazz]

Did Ford do one of their usual tricks, and use EL sway bars in the series 1, because the new ones weren’t ready?

Every AU1 I have seen has the older style straight links, and they are ALL bent. Series 2 & 3 used the newer style with mini ball-joints.
Unfortunately the old dears at DoT won’t accept that this is normal, they want to see nice straight ones, but nobody sells them for the AU. Everybody advertising AU sway bar links has the series 2/3 links.

I am therefore thinking that these are my best bet:

They LOOK like the AU1 (except for being new and not bent.)

Has anybody had to replace theirs?
