Geeeezzzzz........ It's even the SAME picture!  That's a bargain.  BTW,
despite my endless rants about silicone spray, this is one place on the car
I would use it, at least if you don't have something like Wurth "Rubber
Care".  The boot has a tendency to want to turn with the piston.  NOT a good
thing.  A little spritz of the spray can loosens it on the piston and saves
the boot.  John
