O/s inner cv boot

[LukeJ]

Seen a lot of posts around saying just but a new shaft - I've got the boot I need for £7.98 delivered - are they really that much of a ball ache to fit?
I've fit boots in the past with not too much faffing around?

any pointers as not done it on a clio before?

Rs 172 if anyone wants to know.

They are internally clipped. Due to how close the shaft is to the block, the clip will just hit the back of the engine and get ripped off.

Uou could get a proper crimp clip then once on and crimped tap it flat to the shaft. But tbh i can't see that working
