i would just take your old bushes out and press OEM ones back in.. they are well suited to the car.. i personally wouldnt buy wishbones off of ebay..

iirc the OEM spec wishbones are made by 'Lemforder', same as the top mounts. So if you make sure this is the brand of the parts you are buying, then its all top quality (genuine VW stuff). I got Lemforder top mounts from GSF, who may well do the wishbones with bushes from the same. Give them a ring and ask, they will soon let you know.

Replace the rear ones with TT bushes.

They are solid and will sharpen up your steering nicely.
