Use a press... & press tools...
If you don't have one, don't bother. You'll be there all day.
In that case, call your local workshop.

Got it, pretty easy actually, just removed the rollers from the bearing and used a slide hammer with hook/right angle, took about 10 min ;)

Thanks guys

carefully heat the area with a heat gun or hair drier. Do not over do it, with the housing upside down the bearing will just fall out. DONT USE A FLAME of any kind

No damage done what so ever, very cleanley removed, i just used a flathead screwdriver and long nose pliers to remove the rollers and placed the slide hammer inder the top rim of the bearing, a few hard taps and it just slid out, you can also buy a proper fitting to remove bearings with the slide hammer. Slaz u wanna sell that 4.7 fd yet?
