my buddy went to the junkyard today to get me a rear lower control arm and told me that it looks different than mine because the car he was going to get it off of wasn't HICAS. i've searched damn near everywhere and i can't find an answer on weather or not hicas and non-hicas rear lower control arms are the same. and if they are in fact different, where might i be able to find one, because i can find any HICAS specific control arms anywhere.thanks

The rear lower control arms are the same between hicas and standard.The spindles are also interchangeable if you can find someone to press out the hicas ball joint and press in a bushing.I know this because my car is non-hicas, I picked up both control arms and spindles off a hicas car to press in new ES bushings. The balljoint is the only thing different. And it is a pain in the *** to remove.
