Energy Polyurethane Sway Bar Bushings

I am looking at getting some Energy Polyurethane sway bar mounts for the front and the back. I have a 2004 Acura TL 6sp, and know the front diameter of the sway bar 27.2mm and the rear is 20mm. Wanted to go with the bracket incorporating the grease fittings on it. Has anyone had fitment issues? Also they offer two size brackets and didn't know if anyone knew which one to use, or if you know the dimensions of the stock brackets (front and back) holding the bushing (height, length, and hole to hole length for bolts).

This is the website I am using as a reference:

If you're looking to improve handling the rear swaybar is a great upgrade. I wound up using the stock rubber bushings because of past experience with stiffer bars and Energy bushings- lots of broken endlinks occurred. My Comptech bar with stock bushings has been great with no problems. I would try Amazon- that 'Does it fit on my car' feature is amazing.

I am going to use moog endlinks which are much beefier and seem to solve the issue with breaking. Just wondering how the fitment is with universal energy bushings on the stock sway bars.

The gaps on the metal piece is not enough. Closes the the location where bolts go.

I use stock ones. Didn't try the one on heeltoe, but since he sells it for TL, I guess it works.
