Sheffield? Dude, PM member on here, G-10 - he's in Leicester and he usually has a pair turn up once ever few weeks, all LEGIT, OEM stuff. I was gonna buy couple months back from G-10 and at a very reasonable price, but needed the cash money elsewhere.. now I'm in the same boat as you and I have already agreed on a pair of LCI light units, the Angel Eye Rings and the Bright Bulbs from a very well know forum member here who's gonna be looking to sell his car on.

If you can hold a spoon, you'll be A OK DIY-ing it. Have a search on the stickies DIY and you should find guides on how to swap these things

Should take the best part of 2 hours (proper job!) if you've read the guide etc.

Keep us posted where you get to!

Have you considered lowering your car slightly first mate. The lci headlights are nice but seein as you've spent some coin on new rims some eibach springs on your car would sort the stance right out and compliment the wheels!! 300 notes will be enough for a local Indy to supply an fit
