I have successfully removed the front struts from these ball joints and destroyed the boots on both. This is to install 911 struts as a replacement. The ball joint appears to be in pretty good condition and they also appear to be German so I don't want to replace them. I've tried to order the part supplied by a company called Prekom and they are on backorder. Is there another supplier for this boot?

I want to say they are the same (boots) as the Super Beetle and/or VW Bus (68-79) - but double check. Places like Cip1 would probably have options.
