So what's the final verdict on sway bar hole size??
I get that all 04-06 has 10mm hole for sway bars link in LCA and sway bar. (hope i'm not wrong)
But do all 07-08s have 12mm or is it just type S?
OEM part numbers suggest that all 07-08 have 12mm but I've seen so many posts saying 3.5L engines have 12mm while 3.2L engines have 10mm.
Please confirm, thanks.

Sadly I don't know anyone who'd let me measure their hole. Also I want to buy the part before I cut mine...

Said another way, it looks like you are correct in that 2004-2006 cars use a 10mm hole and 2007-2008 cars use a 12mm hole.

Per the parts lists, all 2004 through 2006 TLs use the same Stabilizer Bar end links and Lower Control Arms (51321-SDA-A05 and 51360-SEP-A00 respectively), while all 2007 and 2008 models, base or Type-S, use the same Stabilizer Bar end links and Lower Control Arms (51321-SEP-A01 and 51360-SEP-A10 respectively).

You could, but if I bought smaller endlink than my 07 base hole, I'd have to get a bigger nut to fill the hole or something.

Nice find! I was wondering if I could just use a widely flared nut and overtighten it but that looks nice.
