Well the advert implies they are the same but .... hmmm?
The fact that the wheel sizes changed from S2 to S3, would this effect the size of the hub bearing? I\'ll ask my local agent to try and find out.
Good shout on this link though.

I have now chk\'d with the ebay retailer, and they tell me that this wheel bearing is only suitable for 79 to 83, to me that is ser 1 and 2, so the hunt goes on ...........
