2006 Civic EX - No Crank(Starter Issue)

Our 2015 crv has a known starter issue where the contacts in the solenoid wear out long before they should. We had to replace ours around 65k miles. This vehicle does NOT have auto start/stop - they wore out the old fashioned way. I’m not sure if one can source replacement contacts or fabricate some up, but it’s an item with these. Yours may have something similar. You’ll have to measure power at different points to see what’s going on.
Is the solenoid independently replaceable?

I’m pretty sure the standard “buy” is a full unit, but there should still be some independent starter/alternator rebuilders who could replace the contacts… IF that’s the problem.
 
When the old ones had worn out contacts, you'd hear a loud click from the starter but it would not turn. I don't know if 2006 is the same.
