You have to go online to like e-bay and there are people there that sell only the seals. The dealership in Annapolis will only sell you the seals with a whole water pump and then, depending on the water pump, you may have to also buy some hoses too. I just went through the run around.

If you want to do this yourself and want some help, let me know. I can give a few pointers and help spin a few wrenches.
