its not that much of a hassle to have done. I bought the 03 arms, pressed out the bushings and balljoints, and had a machine shop align and press in forward offset bushings and x2's. Very excellent improvement in my car's handling behaviour.
That's what I did, I fetched about $50 on the balljoints and bushings from the 03 arms. Didn't cover the install of the new parts, but hey, every bit helps.
