98 Subaru OBW front wheel bearings?

Anyone have a recommendation for a shop to do them? I have access to the parts just need a place to install them correctly.
Thanks

Most shops that I know wont install parts you bought because its too much of a "liability". But if I were to ever replace the wheel bearing in my subie again (wait what am I saying, not if but when I do replace a bearing, I will be using 42 autosports refurb kits so I can do it at home in the driveway or something cause I am not paying a shop 5-600 bones to change a god damn wheel bearing when all I need is the press and I dont have a second car to take the hub to get it pressed in.

We could've done it at TW in our lower labor shop but I won't put aftermarket bearings in a Subaru Hub because I'm not going to cover the labor when they fail

Personally if I wanted small, nimble, good gas milage and no rust, I would own a Mini. However, I want space, fun to drive, loud as fuck, forced induction, hood scoop, and AWD.

Thanks guys, I got it off yesterday and am pressing them in/out this weekend....(really it's not bad if you have access to a press).
