Swaybar end links????

I hear this jingling noise everytime I hit a bump or the road is rough. It comes from the drivers side near the brakes and fender. After searching for awhile, I think it is the swaybar end links. How do I replace them and where are they? Anyone know of the price for these? Pics would be aprreciated.

About $15 at Pep Boys. The black thing is a new strut, brake hose going to front brake, and the red & coppery colored stuff is the end link. Easy fix. My car had them disconnected when I got it.

Note, don't skimp out and get links with rubber bushings... not that I'm even sure they sell rubber ones anymore.. the poly bushings vs. shot rubber on my old '86 made a very noticable handling difference all on their own.. also, if they've never been replaced, don't be surprised if you gotta go through hell getting them off.. one on my old car I actually had to take a number of dremel cut-off wheels and a hammer to in order to make the thing go away. =P

Mine was pretty easy to do, just soak everything with penetrating oil a day before. Also i would replace the sway bar bushings as well if your going through the trouble.
