BC.

I have thought of that, and it is a good idea. But I come from the school of thought that says "if it ain't broke don't fix it." the other bearings are fine so I wasnt going to mess with them. I just dont have the time to fix something that isnt broken. If it comes down to it, I am going to pull the whole wheel carrier and have my mechanic pull it and press in the new one.

Where are you getting bearings for $20 each!?! The rear bearings on an 03 S are different from a non-S and cost about $10 more. Everywhere I have looked has fronts for around $40 and rears for around $50.
