Both Gaz and Vmaxx are well known, Gaz would be the better option tbh, VMaxx tend to be cheaper and not as good quality.
You would need to swap your top mounts over to the coilovers off your original struts. Personally i'd take that opportunity to fit new ones, and drop links also as its all coming undone to fit coilovers. But you dont have to.
