steering column boot
« on: 31 August 2010, 18:08 »
Basically i need the rubber boot for the steering column on my 8v non powersteering. I cant find it anywhere all i can seem to see is uv joint boots. Am I just being blind or am I going to need to go all out and get a main dealer part?

RJ. Is the PAS gaiter definately 'longer'? If so I'll give that a try. Expensive if you mess it up though  :undecided:
