Suggestions for Swedish reiters

I recently purchased By Fire and Sword, and naturally I'm doing it in 10mm. Thanks to the Pendraken time machine I've already got my Poles and Cossacks ( ordered just after Christmas and arrived already  :) ). I'm looking for suitable Swedes now, in particular reiters. The book suggests they were issued with helmets and breastplates but frequently discarded these in favor of wide-brimmed hats and leather jacks. Would a mix of the ECW cavalry do ( a mix of EC9, 10 and possibly EC11 ), or would the LOA range be better ?

I use ECW figures for my Swedes; the results are good. It's also the one army that gives Poles a really hard time.

Concur with FK. Same figures I use and they are really nice when mixed with other similar figures wielding swords, pistols and carbines.
I don't think my wife likes me very much, when I had a heart attack she wrote for an ambulance.

Thanks for the replies, ECW it is then. I've been looking for an excuse to have a look at them.
