I saw this and what they are talking about is the type of wheel bearings used in
914 rear. Re-greasing new sealed bearings if racing with them When we buy FAG or SKF bearings for $40 to $80, are they cheaping out on the grease used within? |

I wish I had thought about this as well, but they are already installed.
On a similar note I've read a few times that clutch release bearings are not serviceable, but I found them quite easy to press apart, clean, regrease with Swepco 101 and press back together. You do need a small press, but in a pinch you could do it with a vice. |
