Icon3 5th gen? Rear brake caliper bracket same as front?? OR???

I was replacing my rear brakes and my slider pins are seized in the caliper bracket and WILL not break free causing my caliper not to line up right, much less get it on all the way. Does anybody know where i can buy just the caliper bracket and sliders or are the front brackets the same??? Or is there any other that'd interchange??? I've searched and cannot find any place that sell just the bracket and pins together, I can find just the sliders but no bracket???? PLEASE ANY INFO IS GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!!!!!

No they aren't even close. Sorry I'm sure the sliders off of other rear disc equipped hondas would work. You are best off going to a junk yard, or buying new. Preludes don't really share many suspension/brake related parts with other models.

Junk yard will probably be your best option for price, and quickness. Particularly for the bracket. They likely aren't widely available these days as they aren't an item that wears out much.

it's not that they're wore out just the sliders are seized in there and i want to cover all options in case they break when i'm trying to get them out. Its my only ride and can't afford to be without it.

I can purchase a fully assembled (remanufactured) rear caliper for under $30. It shouldn't be that big of a deal.
