Pilsner LME/DME

As this doesn't seem to be available in the UK, would extra light DME be a good substitute?

That should work, you want to go with the lightest possible extract for a pilsner.
If I were going to do an extract plsner I would do less than a 60 minute boil to hopefully avoid some of the darkening that happens the longer you boil.
I'm just here for the beer.

Seeing as Craftbrewer in Oz want 50 AUD for them (about £30) someone is making a killing on these...and it ain't Rob.

Holy crap, I can get those from Germany at €18.99 for the 4KG plus postage which is €18 for up to 30kg, which means if you get a few different things it brings the cost down a lot, if you got 7 of these that'd be about €21 for the drum, someone is taking the mickey.

I'm not interested in them anymore as I've moved onto all-grain, but they made a great fermentable for Coopers Pale ale. If you want to do it and need some help with the website to place the order let me know I can translate for you. As far as I remember if you email them in English they will be able to sort you out, I think I asked for people before.
