broken wheel stud

Broken wheel stud
#1
Hello :P 

The wheel change company I used managed break one of the wheel studs when they remounted my wheels. Is this possible to replace? or do you need to replace the whole wheel bearing? 

From the looks on youtube from other car brands, it looks pretty simple, remove the disc brakes, knock the broken wheel stud out with a hammer, replace with a new wheel stud. Is this equally simple on a Vauxhall astra? Money is a bit thight so I would ideally do it myself if it's an easy job.

I've never paid any attention when having to change my hub.

But it's shouldn't be you having to repair it let alone pay for it they broke it so they need to fix it.
