Thanks Dave, that's really helpful.

For me, usability is more important than the look (but think the ikon/konis look better than the Hagon's) just need to come to terms with/justify the cost.

It's about 1.5 times (assuming I've worked out the import/VAT costs).

I think the question is are they worth it?

Either will be better than the original, to my eyes the Hagon/Girling the spring is too long for the damper - just aesthetically, I'm sure they know how to build a shock - just dithering about can I justify the extra for a more traditional/stock looking thing.

Probably only been through it a few thousand times in my sad little brain.

Thank you to everyone for their help.
