Class Politics Traveller fairleads

I broke one of my traveller fairleads, and the other is on its way out. Can I use harken 424 micro "flairleads" instead of the Holt Allen 282's?

The harken flairleads fit the holes already drilled for the HA282's. Can't see how this would give me an advantage over anyone else, except that I have two harken items I can use now and i'd have to go buy two Holt Allen's if not legal.

(and before you pull me up on the flairlead issue, that's how Harken spell it. Their fairleads are a completely different item to the micro flairleads.)

the ICLA rules say I must replace with whatever was there before in article 26b Part 3, but earlier in the rules it says I can use any approved builder supplied article. Is Harken an approved supplier?
 
The legal ones are these ones. Although the Harken "flairleads" look nice, they are not technically legal. Besides, you are better off using the V80210 model because it is made of aluminum rather than plastic.
