Hopefully They're the official ones I got them off eBay for £2.99 plus £2 postage Only thing is he didn't send them in a tube or something so they've got a couple of creases which may prove a bugger to get out Any tips on lining them up straight?

wow thats a good deal
i used the washer jets to line mine up and made sure they lined up with the top of the bonnet and the top of the grill where it starts to curve.
The way they are cut there is only really one spot where the will fit nice,
have a play and make sure you are happy before you stick them

hope this helps

How did you mark them up to remember how you aligned them I tried it your way but i'd start then they'd go wonky

i used some masking tape at the top of the bonnet to make sure they went back in the same place and when i stuck them i made sure that the stripes touched the washed jet,
i then matched the second one up with the first one i just made sure it was very wet and i had a fair bit of play
