another tip bought to u by DanNY ;) : Well, the boots are easy enough, but getting that metal wire wrapped tight around the inside of the boot is impossible, at least on the passengers's side of a VE (haven't done the driver's yet). I finally gave up after an hour of fumbling and zip-tied it! :)
get a short drill bit. loop the two ends to the end of the drill bit. start twisting like twisting the twist ties on the trash bag. get 2 turns in...then set the wire...(it should loop around 2X)..set it at the spot u want it..but at the point it won't come undone because it's already twisted together. ok now go and twist more and hold the position of the wire on the boot. once u get it tight enough slide the drill bit out and bend the two rings back just like u saw when it was stock.
