Default 2001 soft top tension wires source ?

Hi,

Now that (for several months) 86319-S2A-003 and 86329-S2A-003 are both designated as "discontinued" by Honda, what are the alternatives?

It's strange for me to see them unavailable on all parts sites but no alternate listed.

I need to replace my top (like six months ago) and I would like to use new tension wires.

Can I use wires from other years?

Thanks for any help,

Since nobody else has answered......MFG's are only required to keep producing parts for I believe 10 years after the end date of production. Thus nobody can really get a hold of the 2.0L short blocks any longer. This will only get worse as years progress. As for if it is the same for other years I do not know. Best to do is hit up some of those that have parted out a lot of cars and see if they have this part and they might even know if multiple years are the same.
