A work in progress! These numbers are all from the relevant parts fiches and factory service manuals, but some look wrong - we will attempt to correct what we can when we get more info.

Please double check any linked products prior to purchase in case of an errant link - Amazon in particular seem to like throwing up lots of non-relevant results...

You may have to scroll to the right to see the rest of the columns for new alternatives depending on your screen size.
