Great! Thanks I'll get onto these now. 

Easy to fit?

Fairly straight forward fit remove the screws holding on the door handle one at the lock end inside the door and you may have one under the plastic trim running along the door handle but be careful removing the trim as they can break. Remove the door handle gasket at the end where the door plate fits and slide the plate onto the handle but you might need to bend the bits of metal on the plate which shield the lock a little to get it to fit and operate smoothly. The only other problems you can have is the handle will sit a couple of mm further out so make sure the screw by the lock inside to door goes in straight so it does not cross thread and you may push hard on the handle to get the screw started you may also need to bend out the lock and door mechanism inside the door if they don't work once the plate is fitted.
They do come the fitting instruction if I have forgotten any thing as it was a long time ago I fitted mine!
