Money is money at the end of the day so the cheaper the better but I agree with steve when it comes to the car safety is paramount

Don't put the lower spec ones on! They have rubber bushes and they are crap. I just bought a new pair but deliberately got the Gti ones with the stronger bushes as I will be lowering soon. I paid £100 for both, they are not pug ones but very good quality. However I bought them from a trade only motor-factors with a card I borrowed.
Oh and btw wishbones are lower arms. Lower arms/steering arms are a more basic version. Same job but wishbones make the car handle better.

no worries. I made the mistake of buying cheap wishbones off ebay and they have lasted about 6 months.
