P-08 Question and Values?

If they are cheap enough and you are mechanically inclined, go for it.

Side plates are a pain to fit and then the lever must also work with the frame/sear bar combination.

Any given side plate has about a 50% chance of fitting your pistol, and if it "fits", probably another 50% chance it will operate correctly.

I usually have to try 4 or 5 side plates to get close, then hand fit, and then adjust the lever.

It is an "education"; and the side plates are about $100 each.

I'm not sure which spring you are missing?
