In regards to the trans fluid, your best bet is to go genuine, besides it aint that dear.

I can supply the whole lot mate if you are in need

I have the stem seals here and can order the rest for you, if needed let me know and will get you prices

There is no trans gasket needed, the aluminuim washer on the drain plug can be re used no issues

The trans fluid, you can go mits but can also get other breeds as long as it is Mits standard fluid

Sorry mate but disagree totally with your above comment

Gen stem seals are NOT MADE by mits, they are made by ACL. I have been fitting aftermarket for years with no issues
Trans fluid, I have been using aftermarket Mits Spec fluid for years also, no issues at all
If you want to pay the way overpriced for a cap and button then go right ahead, most including myself will not pay these prices
There, as I stated above is no tranny gasket required for a service, if the pan is leaking then and only then it needs to be replaced
ISC, that is a viable option
