Replaced transmission drive flange oil seal last weekend, learned a lot!

Took up the challenge, read some online and ordered parts from [[http://paruzzi.com/nl/|Paruzzi]].

Valuable [[http://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewtopic.php?t=249639|thesamba post with pictures to read up on the subject.]]
Things of note:
  * When the crap is out of the bolts they undo relatively easy. Didn't strip out any.
  * The snapring was larger than my pliers liked, so I modified needlenose pliers to do the job. Helped especially for snapping it in.
  * While working a lot of oil came out, (i'm not that fast). Luckily I thought of refilling beforehand.
  * The 'drill a hole and use a woodscrew' method worked a charm to get the old seal out.
  * Made a wooden ring (with a holesaw, first big hole, than smaller in the cutoff) to tap the seal in, happy with the result. Dimensions: 25mm thick, 38mm id, 70mm od.
