Default I think my bearings are going out

I hear a humming noise when I turn the car to the right while driving 30mph and up. I have read that this means the drivers side bearing is the problem.

I know I have read on here that the bearings are press in...etc. Can I buy the whole unit(whatever holds the bearing) so I can dot he install my self?

Where do you buy parts online as well? Rockauto has been recommended to me but I am looking for others.

Oh, and this is my first post. I have been lurking since I bought my 93 Civic EX.

If you only hear the noise when turning, first check whether the tires are rubbing on something in the wheel well.

Just had the tires replaced. I will check again though. It hums when I turn the wheel a half inch.
