How do I get access to the CV joint bolts? The boot is in the way and I cant seem to get it off. Any one know where I can get a tool for the bolts? I cant find anything that works.

Thanks everyone

If it's the funny 12pt Torx-like bolt, look in any VW/Bug Shop. The same bolt was used on Beetles. If they've been replaced with 6pt Allen-head bolts, look in just about any tool store for an Allen-head socket. The boot should push out of the way pretty easily.
