OK.. Done some homework, that included a lot of swearing towards micro and soft when win 7 was trying to update itself for few hours, without my consent..
But eventually I started Vida, got part numbers..
Now I'd like to ask for some advice.
Obviously OEM parts would be best, but then I have to weight in the cost and my peculiar need to pay with PayPal (I don't want to transfer money from it onto my current account in order to pay with card).
Therefore I need to choose something available to me, at good price, without buying crap.
This is where I need some advice. Did anyone try any of below? What would you say I should get?
I made a kind of list..
Choice of:
Top spring mounts, that to be honest, I don't even know do I need at all:
No1, full set:

No 2
https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?m...2F273553089658
No3
https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?m...2F202201597840
Or in separate bits:
Plastics:

And metals (bearing plates):

No2
https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?m...2F170999696831
CV boots..
£36 each at dealers, or one of below?
No1
https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?m...2F113673253988
No2
https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?m...2F362574161291
Brakes..
Still looking for some discs, but I can safely expect around £100 each plus the pads..
But I've found these sets, and I wonder are these any good, preference for redstuff (last link):
https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?m...2F263090015439
https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?m...2F141932639718
https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?m...2F121817164080
Then I have strut sleeves that I'm quite convinced I will need:
https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?m...2F292984027915
Upper and lower spring rubber seats that I'm not sure will I need, but I do have a feeling they're for silencing the spring:

https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?m...2F283070698544
And we get to the bad boy.. My CAT rattles. Apart from that it seems to be doing its job. But stol rattles..
Is any of below any good? I may be thinking of one in the future:
https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?m...2F232464656058
https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?m...2F172995457281
https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?m...2F302791588150
Now.. Whilst I wait for opinions.. I'll set up some more auctions for stuff I want to sell (funds gathering)
Thanks in advance!
