You say everything, why don't you list the parts that were replaced? Maybe something was missed.

Hmmm. The product description shows the end links to be the 12 inch ones. WRONG for the HHR. They should be 10 inch end links for all HHR's.
You may (most likely does) have those end links banging against the lower control arms.
Also. HHR's have the aluminum lower control arms. Those in your link above are the cheaper stamped steel ones. They will fit but are not recommended as a replacement for the HHR.

Yes, and if it’s the intermediate steering shaft, you’ll feel a clunk.
half price doesn’t make the 12 inch swaybar end links suddenly fit correctly.

Hard to say. Not sure what "messed up" means. And which mount ? There are several.
Maybe some pictures would help.
