As said above, they are all a press fit. If your really desperate they can be hammered but I wouldn't recommend it as bearings are not designed for shock loads and it can damage it.

Yes front wheel bearings are all the same across the range. I have changed a bearing and it was a pig! I would recomend you buy a used leg from a scrappy and take that to a workshop to have a new bearing fitted. They wont charge nearly as much if you took the car to them!
