Front wheel bearings shouldn't be too much of a hassle as bearings are bearings and are pretty generic. Maybe take out your old ones and take them to a bearing place like CBC bearings and they should be able to find you some replacements or get some made up.

Rear wheel bearings are a different story. The rear bearings are actually built into the hub, so you need to buy the entire wheel hub assembly.

Note that there is a different wheel hub for pre and post '97 model cars. Camskill is the only place that I know that sells them and the hubs are pretty expensive by the time you get them out here.
