The bearing is pressed in so you will have to remove the steering knuckle. Then press out the flange and remove the C Clip. Then, press out the wheel bearing. Install in reverse.

Wheel bearings are what help the wheels to rotate smoothly. Replacing wheel bearings should be done by professionals cause any mistake can cause brake and wheel damage which will end up costing more in the long run. If you choose to change it yourself jack up the car and remove the tires. Behind the rotors and brakes are the bearings.

Wheel bearing replacement will vary by car. Not knowing what year you have it is hard to say. Typically the wheel is remove followed by the rotor then the bearing.
