Shannon, they both come from the same maker now, so it would come down to who can supply all the required pieces and the best price.

Could be that many of the items are the same thing from both suppliers. I bought a full rubber kit for a sedan from Bill Thompson Auto Rubbers in Aug last year & most of the components were packaged in Rare Spares bags. May just be a case of finding the best deal on offer.
I had some trouble fitting a few of the rubbers but it was more to do with inexperience on my part. Someone who had done the job before could have worked around it a lot quicker I expect.
