 Volkswagen Passat - 96 1.8 Rear wheel bearing change. - FotheringtonTomas
Both sides rear are knackered. Along with the exhaust middle box, that's all that seems to need "doing".

To change - drift out outer races, pull/knock off inners, drift back on inners/outers, grease, replace drums, do up nut finger-tight, put on wheel, do up nut further until can't be done up further by hand, loosten 1/16 of a turn, secure, drive a mile or three distance, check for "just perceptible rim rock", adjust if loose, repeat check after short distance, done.

Sound OK?
