I managed to get mine from eBay (both for £60!)

For fitting you could try Auto Serve in Oldham (I use them for all my car work)

EDIT: just looked on eBay. Is this what you need?

I got mine from a local motor factor, cost about £90 for the pair inc. VAT and I fitted them myself.

[Rory]

I had kwik fit say they could match the price I stated above, and that they could do it Tuesday (I couldn't fit them myself, I wouldn't know what to do) and having been in to order the parts today they told me I shud never have been told Tuesday as theres not a chance in hell they could fit me in, so now I have to wait another week for a day off, and i'm stuck usin the bus for work until then
