Default Best Parts, Lesjofors, Suplex, Sachs,

I'm in the process of replacing the front struts and springs on my 2004 XC70, after one of the front springs broke. It's not easy finding parts, you can't just go to your local car-pars-store for a lot of the Volvo parts.

I've already removed both of the struts and know what I need:
Springs
Struts
Strut Mounting Plate
Top Spring Bushing
Strut Boot
Volvo also says there should be a bottom spring seat

I'm having difficulty deciding which brand of parts should buy, best value for the $ too, and would like some recommendations if any of you have some experience with these

Struts - SACHS or ?
Springs - Lesjofors or Suplex or ?
Strut Mounting Plate - Should be Heavy Duty, Monroe or ?

Recommendations would be appreciated

Thanks!
