the vail guy is away on holiday at the mo, that's why his stuff's not coming up in the listings.

One of the vendors is selling stuff by a company called firstline - ever heard of them?

If you want to fit a part made by the same people as make them for Vx (Lemforder) the cheapest place I have found is Autovaux £117.34 for the pair incl VAT + £7 delivery (next day). Idler was £40 inclusive. Make sure you ask for Lemforder and some say you can get 5% of for OOF membership.

I can confirm this as I emailed them for a quote on Lemforder wishbones mentioning the forum.
They replied saying "we don't have a specific agreement with the Omega Owners Forum but we can offer a 5% discount on these prices"
