Icon6 Replacing rear trailing arm bushings.

Ok I replace the rear struts, wow I just notice that the passenger side rear trailing arm bushing was just hanging there I removed the bolts and the bushing fell out poor thing was beyond its life. So the hunt begins on how to do it with out shelling out $95.00 for part and $250.00 for the install that's what the dealer quoted me. If I was rich I would do it but I am not Oreilly Auto has them for $30.00 each but I had the parts guy show me the pic and it looks like its just the rubber? Can some one lead me on the right path!

There are some videos on youtube that show how to remove them...one guy used a hammer to knock them out.. They are pretty much just rubber with a steel sleeve...
