Default Exedy clutch

Hi all
As the topic title says - are these good clutches? I'm in for a replacement (pretty much standard engine car) and the indy has recommended this. Honda OEM is slightly more expensive but only 20 quid or so. A search of the forum seems to suggest that they're suppliers to honda or even the manufacturer of the OEM clutch components but I can't find anything definitive. The've been raised in a few topics but I can't find anything positively for or against.
So basically, thoughts?
Cheers all
Will

Stick to OEM, proven to be good, and it's only £20.

My opinion is to stick to OEM.

There's lots of stories of Exedy clutches making noises etc on other Honda's, something to do with the bearings that have been used I think.

The Clutches are very good but the release bearing is not. My Exedy release bearing last 400miles on my ACT clutch. Upon observation it is a pathetically weak design in compared to OEM.
