Rear wheel hub with abs on non-abs cobalt?

I have a 09 Cobalt LT that has a bad rear wheel bearing. I was looking at replacement hubs and the hubs with ABS are $50 cheaper then the non-ABS. Looking at the difference all I see is what looks like a plastic cap of sort with a connector on it. There is clearance on my non-ABS car for this to fit but I was just wondering if they both work the same even if no electronics are connected to the ABS version.

Also thanks to the people making the how-to guides here, they have been most helpful recently.

the only issue may be the drum brake non abs cars have a different hub center diameter compared to the disc brake cars. the abs makes no difference to you as a non abs car.

I didn't have any issues with the ones I swapped to but those were 5 lug rears from the LSJ.

I was asking this question because I was going going to buy the part from Autozone and work on it today. But my plans have changed so now I'll just order from Rockauto where the difference in price is a few dollars vs 50 and do the job next weekend. Thanks for the replys.
