go with one of the on line Honda OEM parts supplyers.....90-95 bucks all day long........just a though....how are you installing the pump?.....my advise is to pull the bumper cover, and the radiator so you can see what you are doing.....I guess what I am saying is how do you know the water pumps are shot?A leak? noise? shaft freeplay?........It would not the the first time I have seen people replacing a parts several times when the part was ether being damaged in the way it was installed or they were replacing the wrong part..... please do not take that the wrong way, I am just trying to help.
