If it's a CV boot you need, they're obtainable from SJSports

I tried a split boot it didn't,'t work

Alternative suppliers weren't much help either

yes, im not sure either if we are talking about CV boots or something else.

but to elaborate a bit more.
i have seen people mention they used the "glue 2 halfs" types and had great results.

I buy mine from J&R specialist. and i get the universal fit stretch ones. (not the 2 half type) they work in every scenario. and you just need to trim the excess after fitting. the only issues i had were always a result of poor instalation when the "circlips" dig hard into a ridge of the rubber.

all in all.. your mileage may vary
