I paid about 70 CAD also.<p>Just got my dads mechanic to do it . . . so I highly doubt it's a mazda part.<p>[ December 18, 2002: Message edited by: thebonestockkid ]</p>

Here in Florida the boot kit which includes:boot,grease,2 boot clamps,c-clamp for the axle, goes for approx. $10.
That doesn't sound bad until you try and take the axle nut off. This can be a tough job for the home mechanic with limited tools at his disposal.
I think $50-$100 for a single boot replacement sounds about right from the local mechanic.
