Rear Wheel Bearing

Hi Guys, I am about to have my real wheel bearing changed, not sure which one has gone out, the sound its too loud yet, but I just can't determine if its the driver side or the passenger side. Can any suggest a decent Wheel Bearing to purchase? I have searched online at EBS Racing, Tire Rack, Napa, Autozone etc and it appears that the prices vary sometimes by over $100, anyway, just looking for suggestions on a decent wheel bearing for a daily driver(I haven't done any DE's or Track Days or anything so I don't really need any super high performance replacement parts)

do you have a base or S? at any rate, the F. A. G. bearings are fine; you can get them for the front of an s / base or the rear of a base boxster for $32 at pap parts.
