Hi, and :welc: to the Forum.

I have used AEP Direct in the past, and been satisfied with their service. They will want to be sure you are ordering the right spheres for your car, so it would be a good idea to let them know the vehicle reg number (the first time I bought from them I did not know this, so my order was delayed by a day while until I answered their email).

I've fitted monroe comforts to my 54 MKII and would highly recommend them. You don't really notice the difference at first but once they've settled in the difference when you jump in a standard one (I had a standard 07 as a comparison) is very noticeable.
