does anyone know if these are the same across all 3 series?

according to this ebay listing they are...

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Ball-Joint---Front-Lower-LH-or-RH-Mazda-RX7_W0QQitemZ190354837662QQcmdZViewItem?rvr_id=217455440087&rvr_id=217455440087&cguid=093a745712e0a0aa14f55505fea51cd9

but according to this website they aren\'t...

http://www.allcarsallparts.co.uk/product_details.php?productID=234978

I thought they were the same and obviously I\'d much rather pay Â£13.82 than Â£34.99. The shipping doesn\'t matter as both are local and I\'ll collect.

Any thoughts??

If you look on Mazdatrix they sell the complete lower control arm with ball joint and is listed that the same item does all through the series...
