Import car parts website or ring them. You need a special tool to do the job or fabricate one. The seals are very cheap but they are sided.(passenger/drivers). I fabricated my tool from an old clutch bearing, welded 2 tabs 180 degrees from each other and welded an old socket to it. Fits over the driveshaft spline perfectly.

Ah right ok , that makes sence . So they not expensive , would it be better off getting both sides done at the same time ? Or dose that not matter ?

Upto you mate but I'd do both or at least buy the seals at the same time. Also there's a large O ring on each of the front diff plates they're around a quid each. Also mark the notch on the diff plate's retainer and count how many turns it take to remove the plate and make a note of it so you can set it exact when you refit it.
