Fiesta mk5 5dr project
Bought myself a little project fiesta, its a v reg phase 2 in a light green colour, paid £100 quid from my uncles friend obviously the car as a few problems, 1) the middle section of the exhaust was snapped so i sourced a cheap middle section from euro car parts for £12.49 and fitted it sounds alot better the baffles in the back box as fallen apart sounds like i got a cherry bomb on the beast, 2) when i picked up the car the passenger rear wheel was locked on and the owner told me it was the wheel bearing, so i removed the hub when i had the car recovered to my mums house and the rear wheel bearing was smashed to bits, so i removed the bits of bearing that was on the rear shaft and bought another bearing but am struggling to fit it *some help would be great* its as alloy wheels fitted dont get me wrong its not brand new so it as its scabs,...some advice on what to do with it would be appreciated cheers

Welcome, the wheel bearing will either need pressing in if its a 1 part unit, if its the type with 2 bearings with races and a dust seal the old races will need knocking out and the new one installing. Pretty sure its the 1 piece. You will prob need to remove a circlip too.
