Normally, the shop obtains the LN bearing directly; the reason for this is that some years may have had either single or double row bearings, and the only way to know for sure is to look at the rear cover of the OEM IMS to determine which one is in the car. Your car falls into this category as it is a 2000. Most shops that do the installs know what to look for, and if they do not already stock the LN units, they can overnight the correct one, along with the later RMS. If your shop does not know what you are talking about, take the car somewhere else that does.

Realistically, you would pay the same for the bearing if you bought it directly or through your shop, so it won't make much difference.
