    Koni Shocks, but which springs ?

    Try 4x4mailorder (google it cos I cant do linkies!). Pro comp shockers with boots, bearmach springs, plus nuts bolts and securing rings for a smidge over 200 quid with free delivery.

    5 seater to 7 seater Conversion

    Wot he said :) theres plenty of 7 seaters about. Jus cancell your bid and look fer a 7 seater. Your passengers wont thank you for makin them sit on dickie seats anyway...not unless they have the backside of a 5 yr old. And if they are for kids, I wouldnt let mine use them as seat belt restraint...
