I have a manufacturers list on my shop homepage but i dont have any different makes so need to change that to a best sellers list. Any idea how i would go about doing this?

In includes/column_left.php, the distribution has

  if ((USE_CACHE == 'true') && empty($SID)) {
	echo tep_cache_manufacturers_box();
  } else {
	include(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'manufacturers.php');
  }

Replace it with

include(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'best_sellers.php');

Note that you may also want to change the code in includes/column_right.php not to display the best sellers box by changing

  if (isset($HTTP_GET_VARS['products_id'])) {
	if (tep_session_is_registered('customer_id')) {
	  $check_query = tep_db_query("select count(*) as count from " . TABLE_CUSTOMERS_INFO . " where customers_info_id = '" . (int)$customer_id . "' and global_product_notifications = '1'");
	  $check = tep_db_fetch_array($check_query);
	  if ($check['count'] > 0) {
		include(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'best_sellers.php');
	  } else {
		include(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'product_notifications.php');
	  }
	} else {
	  include(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'product_notifications.php');
	}
  } else {
	include(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'best_sellers.php');
  }

to

  if (isset($HTTP_GET_VARS['products_id'])) {
	if (tep_session_is_registered('customer_id')) {
	  $check_query = tep_db_query("select count(*) as count from " . TABLE_CUSTOMERS_INFO . " where customers_info_id = '" . (int)$customer_id . "' and global_product_notifications = '1'");
	  $check = tep_db_fetch_array($check_query);
	  if ($check['count'] <= 0) {
		include(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'product_notifications.php');
	  }
	} else {
	  include(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'product_notifications.php');
	}
  }
