2nd Generation Control arm bushing

My front left side control arm to sway bar bushing is completele gone.
Been looking around, and found some cheap ones on Ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/TOYOTA-CAMRY-CONTROL-ARM-BUSHING-/120616263180?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories &hash=item1c154a1e0chttp://

Also, when I compare to the driver side bushing, I see there is a washer/shield infront of the bushing, that I dont have on the passenger side??

Any thoughts? Since I live in Norway, I got limited aftermarked stuff for this car. The only option it seems I have, is changing the whole control arm with a Toyota brand one.

Instead of just buying the bushing (a pain to replace), buy the whole complete loaded control arm with ball joint off eBay. It will cost a bit more, but save you hours of time.

As for the washers, both sides should have them, but they are different left and right (dont' ask why - I don't know!).
