Local motor factors should be fine. Although the usual culprit on mi's is a cracked manifold! Has it been reangled, spacer plate used?

I'd go to Peugeot, only a few quid more and a much better fit and quality, also likely to be in stock as they fit all XU's and XUd's.

 

you buy it as a Kit that includes new springs and bolts with the spring cups and washers :)

I'd go for the genuine Peugeot kit. I bought a cheap one from a motor factors and the bolts snapped as soon as the springs put any pressure on them, and the gasket was made of cardboard - whch I doubt would have lasted too long with 800c exhaust gas going throught it.

 

The proper kit was about £16 I think.

Genuine Peugeot kit is easily the best.

 

I've used ones from my local motorfactors & they haven't lasted a week.
