Hardware replacements...are they all the same

I have been looking at options for replacing the external hardware on both of my  rhodes as two of the metal corners have been quite badly bent. I was quite surprised by the differences in price between the various webstores. For example, the external hardware set from CAE Sound is almost twice the price as the set from Vintage Vibe.

Am I missing something? Is there a difference in quality?

I do not mind spending more money on a higher quality product at all. For my 1971 stage, I was hoping to get as close to the original as possible. My other stage rhodes is from about 1980 and I did a custom restore on it so I just want it to look pretty.

Any recommendations?

thanks,
Michael

Vintage Vibe stuff is top notch quality so i would have no hesitation buying their hardware.
