Vauxhall Tigra rear bearing seals???

Car: Vauxhall Tigra
Variant: 1.4
Model Year: 1995
Categories: Steering, Suspension, Brakes, Wheels & Tyres
I just tried to replace both wheel bearings and in the kit supplied were 2 seals. One with metal ring surround, the other a rubber push in seal. When taking off both wheel hubs i found one wheel had the metal surround seal and rubber seal and the other just had the rubber push in seal. Which is the right way and seal to use? Does this kit contain two seals for different vehicles and the idiot i bought the car from changed the bearing and fitted both seals by mistake. What does the correct seal or seals look like and how do they fit? Any help out there?

the bearing kit you brought will be for various cars usually you have a seal for the inside that is rubber usually but dont hold me to this im sure there will be some one that has done a wheel bearing recently for you to be able to offer more advice for you
