I would assume that it goes in that little hole next to the strut, but that doesnt look right at all...

Those "Mirage" LCA's are poorly designed, with the sway bar hole in the incorrect location. The Skunk2 and F7 arms allow the use of stock end links (best option IMHO). Those you bought will require the use of inferior adjustable endlinks, which are prone to break and/or corrosion. The spherical heim joints commonly found in adjustable end links will also wear out and end up with lots of free play, causing all kinds of knocking noises as you drive.

My advice is to either get properly-designed LCA's that can use stock end links, or go back to stock LCA's using stock end links.
