    I saw for the rear it comes as an assembly.but for the front I can't find the complete wheel bearing kit.

    I have the Dorman front wheel hub.
    930-413

    And I have the Drivestar front bearing
    510094x2

    I have both front for the left and right side. Will ask my mechanic to replace it. But my question is will these work? Or am I missing any other parts that I need to order?

    Edit: caution: I don't have a Prius c, and what I'm saying here is about gen 1 through the gen 3 liftback.

    Toyota uses a one-piece hub/bearing unit in those cars. It is not sold as separate pieces, and isn't even intended to come apart into separate pieces.

    I suppose if you are buying aftermarket, the story could be different. From the photos of the parts you have ordered, it does look as if the Dorman part is only the inner hub, the Drivestar part is only a bearing, and you will have to hope that disassembling the original equipment hub/bearing unit will leave you with something this aftermarket bearing and hub will fit in.

    But once again, I don't have a c. It's quite possible the c is actually designed to use a separate bearing unit and hub like that.

    Yes because one time I got a rear assembly wheel bearing for the rear side of the prius c. And it was easy to install for the mechanic. Next day I wanted to do the front. I bought only the bearing and when he took off everything from the front he said "you need the complete assembly it won't go in like that with just the bearing." so that's why I was curious if this is all I need for the front

    In my experience, only if the car's been in a collision or you've got very very high mileage. I've had really good luck with original OEM Toyota bearings. Then again, I'm a if it ain't broke or humming - why fix it, type of person.

    Type in 204605577600 for the item number. It's a scion car wheel bearing. On ebay it is saying it will fit the front left side. Can someone please tell me if this part will fit before I buy it?

    IMHO; I'd go with a new OEM assembly to avoid future issues. There's many Prius on the road with over 200K miles on the clock and the original OEM bearings still in them.

    ^ I strongly support that. I just replaced a rear bearing in our car, about 5500 miles after I paid somebody else to replace it. He did not use a Toyota part, and it went bad fast.

    I used a Toyota part.
