Even with the correct rod end I wouldn't call those legal as they move suspension mounting positions away from OE specs for "18mm of drop" (looks like swaybar and damper points are offset lower from where they would be on OE). I believe it's 14.8.H.5 that precludes altering mounting locations.

However, if you know the thread size you might get lucky and there's an off the shelf generic rod end that works. Start googling for "polyurethane rod end" with the correct dimensions and something might come up.

Alternatively I'm thinking a local shop might be able to fab something up, I've read some tutorials about pouring your own polyurethane bushing so if they can weld a threaded rod onto a metal donut you could make your own if you're hardcore DIY which I've thought about doing, but I'm sure it's a pain in the ass.

Easiest solution would likely be to sell 'em and buy legal arms.
