Unhappy right axle seal leak

went to Honda today for a "check-up" and found out one of my axle seals is leaking transmission fluid. They'll fix it.... for $109!!!! The seal only costs $12, is it too difficult for me to fix it myself? Or do I need to have them do it? I'm just fixin to spend $250 on a new HU and front door speakers, I'd rather not blow my birthday money on repairing something if I don't have to. Thanks for help.

It's easy you just need tools and a manual.

yea just hand tools and a manual will do it but make sure you have the patience because you dont want your car torn in a million pieces laying on your garage floor. it's gonna take time so be prepared for it.

its not like you are swapping an engine and want the best place to install it. Find a place that can put that axle cover on like a mom and pop shop that cost between 45-65 dollars that save u money.

I got time...

but what kind of manual? Only manual I got is my Owner's manual. Please specify how I do it, if its not too hard. I am excited about getting to fix something on my car myself, but I'm a complete novice. I am very smart though, and I catch on quick, but I lack info. Thanks for help!!
