You may find this thread [webmasterworld.com] in our Forum Library to be of use. It seems you've already taken one or two steps of the three-step process.

If your LINKs are wrong, you need to change the links.

Rewrites deal with the request coming to the server after the link is clicked. The link on the page needs to show the right URL. Mod_Rewrite cannot change those links.
