Default rear upper control arm bushings

It looks like I have adjustable camber upper rear control arms on my 03 Ep3. The bushings are shot. How do I replace the bushings? I don't know what arms they are.
Or do I just put new arms on and not worry about replacing the bushings? I've never used these before and don't even know how to adjust them. Any suggestions would be great.

Arms look similar to this one in the pic

Just replace the whole arms... it is unlikely that you will find an exact replacement.

Yep, much easier to just replace the entire assembly.

I know it's easier to replace the arm, but was wondering if anyone has ever replaced the bushing.

Discovered mine are shot this morning

Do you know what brand of camber arms you have on the RSX ? Once you know what you have, you could contact the manufacturer to see if you can get the bushings only.
