I got a Luk one from gsf quite cheap. Cost me 67 quid plus vat. Saw cheaper on ebay but wasn't sure of the make/quality etc.

Yes mate do it when it's all in bits, cause in 6months time if it starts slipping you'll kick yourself for not doing it.

Fit a new one now and save hassle later on.

Go for a sachs or luk kit.
