    Try your local factors. It may not be an easy job if you intend doing it your self as you may need a pullers.

    or try any of these main dealers. http://www.eforecourt.com/php/main_dealers.php/VIEW_BY/MAKE/SELECT/Opel

    Thanks. The good people at the opel dealers do them for 50 euro each plus vat!!!.... Otto out near Finglas has them at 15 euro. Just wondering if there was any place in town to save me the journey out there.

    If the outer of the bearing doesn't want to move out of the hub , put a small line of weld on it . Don't overheat the hub. Before you do this though , put lexan/plexglass inside the glass in your welding helmet in case the bearing shatters . If it does you will have hot metal+glass in your eyes = no fun at all 
     \                  /
  \*             / 
   \            /

* = weld
