Pre-welded coilovers

The coilovers on my car have been nagging me for ages due to the fact theyr from a race car and the height adjustment isnt what Im after and they are extremely stiff.
Having just removed all of my front arms, arb etc today to replace all the bushes and arms I decided I was going to do the coilovers while I was at it.
Im looking ideally for a set that come with the hubs pre welded as I know otherwise these need done DIY.
Anybody got any recommendations?

After doing a bit of research it appears GAZ allow you to send your struts to their factory in essex where they will weld them, they cost 6-700, check those out
Iv also looked and the welding required isnt too trick, a local garage or workshop should manage to do the work.

I'd go for BCs as for the same price they come with top mounts and the ability to change suspension height without affecting spring travel/preload. I have Gaz GHAs for what it's worth that I got for £500 second hand with the rear top mounts, I had the front top mounts from a prior project. The top mounts are about £300 extra.
