Good point it just might take those wires out.

But seriously, if I would try to adress it properly, is the easiest way this:

1. Jack up car etc, remove the protective alu plate and the alu cross bar on the drivers side.
2. Remove the catalytic converter.
3. Unbolt the inner cv joint from the transmission
4. Fold down the axle (outer part still attached)
5. Remove inner cv joint
6. Remove outer broken cv boot & MacGyver fix :-)
7. Put on the new outer boot from the inner side of axle. (new grease first)
8. Reattach inner cv to axle
9. Bolt everything back

Is this doable or do I need to remove the whole axle?
