If you have a bottle jack and a trailer, you can do a makeshift press. The heavier the trailer the better, obviously.

Although, the local Honda dealership might have the bearing on site.
Our wheel bearings are a pretty standard part. Most decent auto parts stores will stock them. I got a set of Timkin bearings from Autozone.

Yea, Autozone has Timken bearings for $36. Hard to justify the Honda dealer selling an NTN bearing for $100+

My master plan for when and if i ever switch from autox to track is to have a set of spare rebuilt complete knuckles for the car. Recently I broke a stud and ordered an ebay spare for 100 bucks and suprisingly enough it appears to have just had the bearings and studs replaced. Even if it didnt if you do the work yourself you can put together a spare set for fairly cheap.
