Lower Control Arm Replacement LCA

I have a 2001 gt with 146K miles and looking to do CV shaft and LCA for both Right and Left sides.

I read a post saying that it was easiest/cost effective to do the LCA in total instead of doing vertical/lateral bushings and ball joint separately. Going on to rockauto there is only one LCA option for the grand prix, which is pricey. If you look at the cars it fits the buick regal is one of them. Now if you look at the buick regals LCA options there are 3 options, one is the same as referenced for the grand prix and two others (Doorman, Mevotech) which are more economical. Please see attached pic referencing parts and options below.

So the Question is.. Would the Doorman or Mevotech LCA options fit and work properly on the grand prixs? Has anyone ever successfully used either option on our cars?

I looked for those too. i think the issue is they just don't have DORMAN,MEVOTECH listed under the GP,GTP, for what ever reason. They interchange, unless the rubber in the bushings is softer for the BUICKS.
