it have a slit hard to see by the picture (without the slit you cant put the inside), i always change also the stabilizer bars with it, for me its like a set. its hard to see if they have a free movement and even so, its cheap and its effect it's huge on the steering wheels so ... change it and forget about it.

I see the genuine Toyota ones they look like they don't even have a slit on them just going by picture. Plus should I change the stabilizer bars even if not much play in them 

@2009joe I had to change the stabilizer bars because of the cracked rubbers. I decided to do the sway bar bushings as well purely because of the effort of having both sides of the car jacked up and bushings were cheap in a motor factors. I didn't price them in Toyota after hearing the difference in price for the links. 

@avensis_2018, unfortunately I didn't get the same lift after doing mine (admittedly the bushings were a hack). I didn't really feel much difference tbh. But things looked reasonably ok for both links and bushings before changing anyway, (a visual on the cracked rubber was the call to action), and we generally drive decent roads.
