Aftermarket Outer Tie Rod end links or alternative OE replacement?
I just found out that my out tie rod end links have gone bad. I'm also trying to meet a deadline of getting my car ready for an outing next week. I've been looking for an OE replacement Tie Rod end link, and nobody seems to have them but Honda. People have the inner, but not the outer.
A local shop has aftermarket ones with spherical bearings in stock which could be a quick fix, but I don't know how many points they are assessed.
In an attempt to get my car track worthy again, Id like to replace them as soon as possible. So my question is:
A) Does anyone know of an OE part that may fit another car that will work on the S?
B) If I go to aftermarket units, can the NASA TT/PT guys chime in as to how much they will cost me points wise?
Reading the rules, I feel they will be assessed +2 under "Alteration of ball joints/dive angles"
Thanks guys.

If its covered by what I think it is, then the j's racing lower ball joints that i'm installing, I won't be taking any additional points. I just wanted to know what their point assessment was for when I take the j's ball joints off.

is that the front or the rear? I mean the front wouldn't affect anything but the steering right?
I am pretty sure I have a bent rear tie-rod or 2 in my shed but the end piece should be good
