Be thankful you're in Buenos Aires and only a few KM from Dakar Motos !!
Javier will be able to order the seal and install it for you..
It's really best not done in a carpark. You may need to remove your forks.
If you've never changed a fork seal before, the hotel carpark is not the best place to learn....
