I would stay clear of cheap bearings, any cheapos that i have bought have never lasted. without going genuine parts, there are some good brands out there

I fitted one last week which I got off eBay and was/am well pleased with it I paid an extra £4.99 for express delivery and it arrived the next morning, I can highly recommed this seller (no connection)

(I've tested the link, says item sold, so contact the seller if you'r intrested)

I priced the bearing/hub at my local motor factor who I use lots of times and at trade price they came in at £98.00 plus vat.

PS: you need a star socket to undo the four bolts that hold it on, took me about ten mins to change mine.
