Question Question about new front wheel bearing and hub assembly

Hi,
Just received new wheel bearing and hub assembly for front 2004 G35X and I'm not sure how to install them.
The center where the axle goes is sealed. I thought I got the wrong part but I checked the website and the pictures match what I received.
I uploaded the pics. Do they need to be prepped somehow ?

Thanx for your help.

To Moderator : Sorry for posting in general thread.

They look like RWD front hubs.

You got the wrong part.

Part number for X front hubs are: 40202-24U00

There should be a hole for the front axle to go thru.

I was about to say these are not for driven front wheels.

Thanks guys. I confirmed that yesterday. So far, three places I've been to all sell the rwd version for the X awd as if they are interchangeable and when I checked the NAPA part and saw the pic was the same closed middle I was all over it. Bearing and hub $84 shipped?!?! I was all over THAT, never realizing it was just too good to be true.

Buy it off rockauto.com.

They have the bearing from $64-120ish depending on the brand. You can usually find a 5% off code if you search.

Ebay has pre-pressed bearing and hub for $200 plus shipping

Hubs are about $150ish.
