You only need 1 actuator for the drivers door as per the fact sheet, try contacting the seller & see if they can supply one, don't know if halfords will do one, not sure if Maplins sell just the actuators, or put a want ad on the wanted section, someone may have one spare if they got a full set.

No worries, good luck with the bloody knuckles
As per Jaylee's advice you may need a bit of an extension to the actuator rod, a "proper" older wire coat hanger makes an ideal donor

one of my first mods and one of the most useful.
See my posts in the above topic, but as has already been said you'll need to find a single long rod, I used a length of copper tube with stubs of the original soldered into the ends. (After a couple of failed attempts with jointed short rods). Still going strong.
