Ordering new gasket set w/valve stem seals

Ok, probobly posting this at the wrong place, but..

I Need new valve stem stem seals, from mazda the cost for them is insane 100 NOK or 17 $ each witch amounts to a total of 408 $ just for the seals. I cant find any stores in Norway who can get them from another manufacturer all they say is go to Mazda :roll:

So I serched the net and found a head sett witch includes:
- Head Gasket
- Valve Cover Gasket
- Int. & Exh. Gaskets
- Viton Valve Stem Seals
- ALL other required sealing gaskets, strips & plugs.

from this site: http://www.importperformanceparts.net/i ... azda1.html

Anyone know if this site is trustworthy or??
Is the "TopLine" brand any good or is it crap?

Any other good recomendations for where to order (Europe preferd but not required) and what brand would be gratly appriciated :D

PS: I do not need headgaskets, I allredy bougt them, but since (I gues) I need other gaskets a set would be nice.

There's a store in UK with many gaskets for the MX3 http://www.fordprobestore.co.uk

On Ebay.co.uk you can find complete head gasket set for the K8 at 60 pounds http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/MAZDA-MX3-EUNOS-C ... dZViewItem

On Ebay.com there's a gasket set made of graphite pretty cheap around 40 dollars.

Personaly Im considering buying in UK because of taxes. Maybe for Norway it's better buying from USA...
