Proper bushing kit for Sedan vs Coupe

This has been discussed a bit before but mostly from a RWD/AWD perspective, and those threads are a few years old, so here is a fresh thread...

I need to replace the bushings on the front transverse control arms so I was just going to buy a full bushing kit and do them all. The kits that I see online (Amazon, O'Reilly, where ever) all show that the kit is for the Coupe, not the Sedan. I called Energy Suspension customer support and they confirmed that the kit has been tested for the Coupe. They said it may fit the Sedan if all factory part numbers match between the Coupe and Sedan but they can't verify that because they haven't tested it.

I compared parts between the Coupe and Sedan on parts.infinitiusa.com and everything seems to match so I'm more encouraged that the Coupe kit will actually work on the Sedan. I'm just wondering if anyone has any real-world experience with using the Coupe kid on your Sedan. Have you replaced bushings on your Sedan? If so, what products did you use? Thanks for any feedback.

Here are a couple of kits I'm looking at...
Prothane product number 14-210-BL
Energy Suspension product number 7.3121G

Thanks for the feedback, Peoria35sedan. I ended up buying the Prothane kit, just because their kit was labeled as "all submodels" for the 2003 G35. I was still a little skeptical but I figured I would have better grounds for a product return if it didn't fit for some reason. But your experience gives me confidence I won't have any issues with my kit either.

I'll be getting greasy tomorrow. I can't wait to get these new bushings on.
