I got OEM clutch discs from ProCaliber. You likely don’t need the steel plates. Did you have the dreaded rivet plate issue ?

 I did a clutch on my step-son's IS last year I got the parts from Ron Ayres Motor sports in NC. Lowest price I found. I think the price was around $240 for all the frictions,all the steals and the spring. I didn't replace the rivit plate.   If your rivit plate is broken you most likely will NOT need the steels but if yours was slipping like my Step-son's was you will want to. Several of his steels were blue from the heat. I also replaced the spring. Just because.

How difficult of a job is this? I have never messed with a clutch before other than to pull it in to shift gears. Clutch just doesn't feel right.

  I sandblast the steels when ever I have the clutch down for service ,on any of my bikes.That cleans them up and will increase the 'holding' power of the clutch . My dragbike's clutch never slipped after doing this . If you have a clutch slippage issue, I highly recommend this,  it will absolutely STOP any slipping .  Check the steel plates for warpage  on a FLAT surface , if they pass then blast them and reinstall. As for the friction plates , measure the thickness with a dial caliper and if it is within spec they are good to reuse.
