If you remove the wheel hub, which contains the wheel bearing, then you can take the hub to a shop where they will press the old bearing out and the new bearing in.

They're both just the bearing. They are different brands but I really doubt the expensive one is 3 times as good. You can split the difference, an OEM one from a Honda dealer lists at about $75.00.

When I clicked the link, I found two types of bearings, one for abs and the other for non-abs, which showed a $10 difference in price. Take a screen shot of what you see and post it.
