I got mine done by my local motor factors TMS who sent them to brake Engineering who refurbed them as they didn't have any exchange ones in stock. Only took a few days came back like new. From memory about 45+vat each.

I did find this site the other day which looks quites good value, but I haven't used them so I can't vouch for them.

I think Brickwerks do them also.

Regards,
Mike

Just fitted a GSF Recon one on mine... 58 quid + VAT, as i've never had much success with seal kits, and the piston was badly pitted.
20 quid surcharge on top of that until you take the old one in, then you get it back.
