Anyone try these W140 polyurethane control arm bushings?

I've been thinking for a long time about ditching the "gel" filled lower control arms on my W140, and now saw a listing on eBay for some poly bushings. Maybe these will keep the car from shaking!

Thoughts?

Thanks!

I know. I called 'em to ask about the origins, but missed the Eastern time office hours. I've bought from this company before and had no issues. I'll report my findings.
