Go to the breaking car parts on here and have a look through.

There are many breakers such as pole position and Scooby parts who have an excellent reputation for quality of parts and customer service on here.

Give them a shout!

What were the symptoms? Mine has just started making a rubbing noise from the rear offside wheel, I would have guessed brakes but it stops when I turn left! Sound familiar?

Well thought it was n/s r bearing so changed it, no change took it to engine tuner they said the same after a quick drive I told them I'd changed it so they inspected a bit further and traced the noise to diff. I changed the oil to castrol universal it's a bit better and there was metal filings on the plug.

I think with engine tuners reputation I can trust them to diagnose the problem.

You can pick up a rear diff for around 80 its probably easier than changing a bearing lol
