Where can I buy these when every source I try says discontinued. Is there an alternative that I can use. Really cant part with my 1993 2ltr UK spec Prelude for such a silly reason.
Can anyone advise me?

most garages should be able to make up new power steering hard lines for you using copper tubing...if its the pipes that go to the power steering cooler at the front of the car thats leaking then ive heard that you can cut this out and just loop it with some suitable rubber hose and clamps:)

if its the cooling pipe in front of the rad - i looped it with rubber pipe on my 2.2vti and it never gave me any trouble, including track days.
If its the hydraulic pipes, you might need to remove them and take then to a specialist hydraulic place (pirtek rings a bell) and they can make some new ones up...
