Anyone tell me which is the most straight forward one to fit (bracket wise)from the ones im considering below within the £50-£60 price bracket?

Same items are £30 on Ebay (e.g. Item 350166068192).
Can't see where the extra £30 comes from on the Flat4 item.
The hoses in these kits are rubbish but the can is very well made.
There are also some larger volume cans appearing on Ebay at the moment which should allow more separation time. They can all be opened up and s. steel mesh added to increase the contact surface area and help separate the oil.

That's the tricky bit - you may have to make your own one up.
I've got one of those cans attached to the coolant header tank with the kit bracket, but it would only fit as the air filter box is deleted.
The can will need emptying from time to time, so don't hide it too far out of reach.
