If they are only £62 I would go for the Ford parts. Makes a change to get something reasonably priced from them!

You'd be suprised Fred, alot of stuff is cheap from Ford.

For example, Halfords charge £14 for a crappy stick on wing mirror glass but Ford only charge £11 for the proper clip in one.

The problem is finding any Mk2 stuff, they kind of gave up on them about 10 years ago.
