I wouldn't buy second hand. Get one of the Contitech ones, they're good and they are easy enough to fit. Infact if you passing drop in, its only half an hour a side to do and i've got a torque wrench up to the job as well ;)

My way was the easiest. Buy hub from dealer & then pay local garage to fit it.  ;) ;) ;)
How much was the parts??

It was a couple of years ago, but I think your quote of something over £100 sounds about right.
