HELP!!! Question on bushing kit

So i think i made the mistake of buying a bushing kit that's not compatible with my 1992 firebird.

i bought it from amazon just now, stupid me didn't notice that it said camaro and i didn't use the chart to make sure it was compatible for my car.

So is this kit compatible?

According to Amazon, the kit won't fit your car.

That kit is for '82-'92 f-body's. To find out I did this:

1) went to www.energysuspension.com
2) downloaded the catalog, just click on it from the home page
3) opened search in adobe
4) copy & pasted 3.18131 (dropped the R as that is for red)
5) in a few seconds the search showed:

"1982-92 Chevrolet Camaro & Pontiac Firebird 3.18131"

6) Done, it fits.

The only area that differs over the years & models is the swaybar bushings. Don't know if they are included or if various sizes are included.

I love it when stores/companies don't know what they're selling (I couldn't imagine why it wouldn't fit, but....)
