Control arm crazyness.

Hi people.
I'm getting all the suspension rebuild next week. There is definate movement in the drivers side ball joint, so though I'd get two new arms. The drivers was fine to get, but they couldn't get the near side. I've looked on eBay and there are loads rangeing in price for £21 to £430!
I'm pretty sure there are two types early cars and later. GFS have me some part numbers from a few companies, but none relate to the numbers on the eBay items.
Any ideas?
Ps BMW can still get the near side, £120. Ouch.

There is indeed two different types, and they differ in 10/78.
