Galaxy kit, and I recommend it. There bonnet fit isn't great, I'm not sure what happened there,as it was OK at the test fit stage.
And the BMF could be better. Overall, I'm happy with it.
Added the usual wiring & plumbing, otherwise its OOTB.

The real trick is finding one at a reasonable price so that once shipping is added it don't take an arm or leg to get!
