Rear bearings are easy, i see your in birmingham, car spares based in b'ham can get them and they are very reasonable under £12 a side last time i had some and they have lasted well.
Dash air vents are cold fresh air vents i believe, all my maestros have always been the same. :)

As above. Rear wheel bearings are a very easy job on the maestro. Fronts are somewhat more involved due to the tightness of the bearing in the housing.

Rear bearings are all the same. (except for the van).

Its only the front ones that are different. Ledburys should have the latest type of bearing.
