Wedge Re-bushing advice on TR8

Hi guys - Happy Holidays!

I'm having a local shop install new springs from TSI and new KYB dampers tomorrow and am looking for advice on if I should have them install any of the poly bushes that I have on hand but haven't installed yet. (I already did the front roll-bar which was a pain in the butt).

Looking at the shop manual it looks like the suspension arm and radius rod bushes are pretty straight forward, as do the front ball joint or bottom link the but I've never done it before.

Is there any reason to ask the shop to do these while they have the springs off?

(Sorry for the cross-post with the TR8 mailing list but I need to give the shop directions this AM)

Thanks!
