Car problem help :(

It depends on the car, if it's been out of production for the past 10 years it might be worth it to take it to a specialist rather than a dealer.

Although that might only apply to cars with a strong fan base and owners club.

Integra and the RSX are virtually the same which is now overtaken by the Si. Most Honda parts are interchangeable. A specialist will just do the same shit the dealers do by interchanging other Honda parts. A specialist most of the time will have to call for the parts and the dealer might have the part in house already. Problem is the dealer will charge you more than the specialist.
