Default Stock AP1 Front Pads

Does anyone know where I can still buy OEM AP1 pads, part# 45022-S2A-000?
I tried calling a few of the online sellers and everyone is out of stock and only has the new part# that replaced the OEM AP1.

as far as I know, the original AP1 pads were discontinued. The AP2 pads will work just fine.

I'm looking for AP1 as I've read many places that they dust far less and have better bite. Anybody?

The new Project Mu NS400 pads have very little dust, but increased heat capacity over the OEM pads - if youre looking for a low dust solution to sub for the Oem AP1s

I bought my pads through advance auto. They can order the nissin (which I'm pretty sure are the OEM manufacturer)
pads for our cars.
