Which aftermarket starter?

Looking to replace the starter motor myself.
Acura OEM is $800
Bosch is $150
Carquest is $284
Denso is $240

Anyone had any success with a remanufactured aftermarket one?

please help

Here's one for $168.79 with a core exchange; however, since you give no year indication of your RDX the one below is for a 2013 3.5L?

Why overpay when this is an almost new OEM 33k mile starter from Iowa? What's wrong with your starter? https://www.ebay.com/itm/32694753672...temCondition=4
