How do I install bearings?

I have a stock Acura RSX in silver (just like my real car ), but I got some metal ball bearings to replace my stock plastic bushings (unlike my real car). However I got em cheap off Ebay, so they're not official Radioshack parts and have no instructions. How/where do I install these things? I don't even know which parts are the bearings on it....

the bearings replace the bushings in the knuckles, rear bulk heads, rear suspension arms and then the bushins that the drive shaft sits in. if you have awd they go in the front bulkheads too.

Ah, so I just drop them in to replace the little yellow plastic bushings? There's 14 metal bearings I got here, and I can only see 6 plastic bushings plus whatever is holding the driveshaft..

I may run out to Canadian Tire to get some Slick 50 oil before I put them in.

What's the point of the driveshaft in a RWD car? Is it just there for adding the AWD kit onto later?
