ECP and you can get forum discount

You will need a press to fit them.

Is that fitted? If so it's not a terrible price. You should be able to pick up a pair of reasonably good bearings for about 60-70quid. Plus 45-35 labour isn't too bad imo.

No, that's just for the parts. An extra £131.00 to have them fitted.

Thought it was a bit steep.

Yeah that is a wee bit on the steep side.
