No bother Billy, be aware that you will need to cut one coil from the spring on most aftermarket offerings, otherwise they will become coilbound when you fit them
The original spring free length is 15.5mm and the aftermarket ones, 18.5 the pin length is the same however.
This applies to Pagid, Mintex, or Delphi branded items, the giveaway as to the unsuitable types are a 5mm hex hole in head of the pin rather than a No 2 Pozi.
It was for this reason I bought a SMN100290 hold down kit, and after comparing spring lengths, broke out the Dremel
