Where to buy a new ignition switch?

I am having problems with my 97 auto/tiptronic prelude shutting off while I am driving. I have found on other threads that it is likely to be a problem with the ignition switch (Car shuts off while driving????)

Where can I buy a new ignition switch to install myself? Would I have to go to a Honda dealer? Or would they only sell it to me if they install it themselves? Any Aussie users able to give specific places?

I have contacted my local dealer and they have been pretty unhelpful.

Thanks

Have you checked if you qualify for the recall service?

Yeah I contacted my Honda Dealer but they said my VIN number was not a part of the recall. Considering my car is a 98 Prelude and its showing the exact symptoms as the recall describes, I am writing to Honda to fight it.

It is pretty urgent I need it replaced though as it is getting worse and worse. So was just wondering incase Honda denies me a free repair.
