Center Carrier Bearing 700

I have a 1990 740 turbo and looking to replace the driveshaft center carrier.
Any recommendations for brands besides the OEM part? I see some aftermarket brands like Febi,Meyle but the downside is made in china!
I appreciate your replies and thank you in advance!

I replaced one in our (long gone) 90 740, using an aftermarket part. The aftermarket unit was a lot more "squishy" than the original. Given the poor quality of the replacement and the amount of work involved to replace it, I was sorry I went that route and not OE.
