Changing the clutch without replacing the throwout is like crapping and not wiping your **** Seeing as how you already have the tranny out now, replace it now rather than later.

^^ Agreed with those guys. Unless you whole-heartedly enjoy taking your transmission out often, just install a new bearing. The relatively small cost for a new part is not worth the headache of replacing it later since you're going to have the tranny out anyway. I hated my life when I took out my CC Stg. 4 and totally forgot to swap out throw-out bearings. I realize you've got OEM, but seriously, why chance it?
