I had to replace mine last year and found Startin Honda in Worcester had the cheapest price for a new unit at the time: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/HONDA-Prelud ... SwhvFZEzZ9

Also, if you need to continue driving with a worn ignition switch, then make sure you remove anything attached to the key that can swing around while driving (alarm fob, other keys, etc...) as that small swinging motion while driving is enough to move the key in a badly worn ignition switch, causing the car to shutoff. Using just the key alone will often make the car much more reliable until you can replace the switch.

Thanks for the reply, but part of the thread is missing and I've already sorted it thanks to Lankysod :)

You should consider buying new one. Theres no guarantee that another used one wont go bad after some while again. I bought new oem for 70 euro.
