Rear stabilizer link bracket snapped

I have an 06 Acura TL with a 24mm progress sway bar and MOOG links. So recently my car started to make a clunking sound over small bumps so I got my car lifted and found out the link snapped off of its bracket. I have two questions first anyone know what the part number is for the brackets and if there is a beefier aftermarket solution?

They're not that expensive for OEM replacements. Not sure about aftermarket.

Numbers 9 & 10:

I'd replace both sides at the same time. Happened to me a few years ago. One snapped followed by the other side a few weeks later. Those brackets have a tough time handling thicker stabilizer bars bigger than the standard 20mm on the 6MT's. My stabilizer bar is 22MM, so your 24 is more likely to put stress on them.
