Mondeo wishbones are different

Alex tried Mondeo polybushes and they were massive and didn't fit either

Ah, well, mind don't look that bad! in fact, mine look quite good.

How can you test if they are working ok?

They're "tested" (as in MOT tested) on "excessive movement".

Either have an assistant turn full lock on the steering for you while the car is on the ground, weight on wheels and look at how much they move, or insert large screw drive between wishbone and subframe at the bush and lever hard to observe movement.
