I used powerflex, far cheaper. In fact cost me £130 for the fronts and £150 for the rears.  Poly bushes at a fraction of the cost and so easy to install once your old bushes are out.  I would whole heartedly recommend getting the old bushes pressed out at a garage, may cost a few pounds but oh so worth not having the grief of trying to cut them out.  Some of the Mazda bushes are £50 each so it will cost you lots to retain standard ones.

There are a few threads on this so shop around first and then make your mind up.

gonna get the powerflex rear kit, which will take care of most of the bushing, but what should i be looking for with the pillow balls, as i know some have been changed, but don\'t know which ones. is it just general wear or should i be checking for play.
