Well that little nugget of information is wrong!
81204 are
these
Energy Suspension's equivalent are
these, which are what I order and just received after waiting for over 2 months!
When really what I should have ordered are these...

The 81204 part number taken from the OP refers to them as "Front Strut Arm Bushings" on that webpage, which is why I thought they sounded right, however they are certainly Front Strut (Radius) Rod Bushings!
Fortunately I still need them. They are different to on a 4th gen (I've since found out), but now I'm going to have to wait another small lifetime before receiving the Upper front arm bushes

ok sorry for that. What you are saying that the 81204 is the equivalent of the 2295 in this pic?
And you are after the equivalent of 2280 in this pic?

Nope, the 81204 (or better call it 16.7108 to keep it all Energy Suspension) are the 5th gen equivalent of 7096 & 7097 in this pic...
Seen fitted
here.
I didn't think there was a difference for this bush between a 4th gen and 5th gen. I thought the front cross member was the same... Unless this bush is the difference between a regular 5th and a Type-S

Ahhh I get you.
You are correct, regular non-ATTS Ludes have the same radius rod bushings as the 4th gen. Only the SH and Type-S are different.

So these bushes I've bought and received are no good then?

@4thgenphil are you going to need them with your Type-S front end mods?
It's these bushes, but Energy Suspension Black...

Yeah they are the wrong thing
ES's description of the parts are crap, that is why I did the diagrams for the 4th gen. But obviously I got the wrong part number for the 5th gen.

That's ok. I already have the 4th gen ones, which is what I thought I needed to use for the radius rod ends. If Phil doesn't want them then I'm sure I'll be able to flog them on eBay (Selling point... They're in stock
)
