Anyone breaking a gti and have any rear wheels bearings??

Also does anyone know if the Lupo gti wheel bearings will fit cos they seem to be half the price of polo bearings :-/

They are so expensive as the hub is preassembled to the unit - not like the old ones where you swap them out

And no, lupo units are different.

Genuine is best, but not cheap sadly.
