LUK or Valeo will do perfectly fine, used both in the past without issue so I would say go with whichever is cheapest of them..
Clutch alignment tool, never used one myself - my alignment tool for fire engines is a bit of copper plumbing pipe with a little bit of tape on end. Done at least 5 or 6 clutch changes on fire engines and never had a problem with them being aligned after. That said, the tools are cheap so upto you chap really.
tips.. I have never undone the hubs to do it. Just undo the spindle from the bottom of the shock on passenger side and you should have enough movement to pull the top outward far enough that the driveshaft comes out the cup. Careful it doesn't drop on the ground and pick up loadsa debris!! wrap bag around the end to keep clean, bag held on with a cable tie, and then another cable tie to hold the driveshaft up and out the way. Drivers side driveshaft will just fall out when you pull the gearbox off, again careful it doesn't fall in debris, bag and cable tie up as with other side.
I myself have taken to just dropping the whole engine out to do the change these days, makes it miles easier to align everything and get the gearbox back on. I'm sure alot of people see this as a bit drastic but its what i find easiest - but then its not as easy if you don't have a proper engine crane etc, is perfectly doable leaving the engine in, but much much easier if you have a friend to help when putting box back on unless you are much stronger than I am - I am only a little weakling lol.
Other than that, cleanliness is the key here really and do not forget to clean the new pressure plate of the packaging oil!!
