The Vauxcentre parts are not genuine, I rang and asked them. They couldn't tell me who manufactured them. I was also doubtful whether the Autovaux wishbones were Lemforder or not (as they stated) having bought them, but when I got the protective plastic off the ball joint the logo was on the rubber gaiter (owl, in a circle, in a triangle). They have the holes pre drilled for Xenons.
If you have problems with tramlining, whilst it could be exaggerated by poor wishbones, tyres or steering geometry suggest you also check the steering idler for play as well.

Do the pair. Otherwise one side will have old worn bushes and the other new tight bushes.
