hi ive just joined and I need help!! My 5th gen is up for MOT and I can't seem to find rear tie rods or track rod end anywhere other than from Honda which will cost me £360... I don't really want to spend that much if I can avoid it. so im just wondering if anyone knows anywhere where I can buy them. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers
Swazy

See if there are some 2nd hand parts available from cars being broken.

if you got some time, try the USA for oem parts, they can be cheaper even with import tax

or maybe scott H tune could help

actually they never had 4ws in usa, maybe try supplier from japan?

or I think I've heard some rover parts fit

Hang on, if they're similar to the 4th gen ones you can use Vectra B track rod ends!

Lings says they are the same part on both the 4th and 5th gens.
