Progress 62.1062 or 62.1061? Rear Sway Bar

I have read that some are having fitment issues with the CR-Z/Fit part #62.1062 RSB compared to the Fit only version 1061, I have a 2010, most of what Ive heard has been on the 2011s which I don't see how that would be any different than the 2010s or 2009s, but just for guaranteed compatibility should I get the one made just for the Fit?

Anyone ever ordered from Club RSX? They have a good price on the Fit version 62.1061

But there are places selling the 62.1062 version cheaper so if that works just as good I'd like to get that.

Pretty much all anyone sells now is the 62.1062 stating compatibility with the GE8, even progress says it is, but thats why I'm asking cause some people have said they have rub issues.

If you google the 62.1061 you get like two stores that sell it, amazon for over $200 which I'm not paying that much for a progress RSB, and Club RSX for $150 which is an appropriate price but not sure if its a good store or not.

they're all stating it as capatibility with the GE8 because progress made the CRZ to replace the one for the GE8. Goal was to make it work for both, but they had fitment and clearance issues.

They reissued the 1061 because the 1062 doesnt work with the GE8

if you want to avoid a headache about getting the bar replaced, order the 1061.

advancespeedshop.com has em for 156

I could be mistaken but I'm pretty near sure that the fits do not come stock with a rear sway bar.....So there's no thickness to compare too. That's on gd3 not sure about ge8.

the progress is in addition to whatever the GE already has. I don't recall the size of the stock bar, but you dont take out the stock one, as that's welded to the torsion beam.

it's a non adjustable sway bar
