Easy to fit if you have a piece of scaffold pipe handy (!) as someone above said. They are better quality and last much longer than the aftermarket ones.

Good product, Its a big help to heat the boot in hot water then quickly dry and fit.

Excellent product, purchased after market first and threw them away, fitting these is so much easier as no faffing with rubber bands or metal rings, Easily fitted with large socket and G clamp.

It's a super item. Fits fine, and saves you a lot of money. Take care when you punch it in place. Use a top or a pice of pipe that fits over it, so that the force is applyed close to the metal ring.

To echo the over comments, a good if difficult fit. Unfortunately I didn't have a socket bigger than 30mm so I just used the biggest punch I had. It didn't take massive amounts of effort to fit.You won't get these to fit by hand, but I expect most people have a tool that can be manipulated in the right fashion. Just don't use anything sharp!

There is a easy way to fit them , I found a 32mm or 34 mm socket placed over the top of the ball joint, make sure its directly straight above the joint, the place a g-clamp on top of the socket and below the ball joint and slowly wind it up, this way you have no chance of splitting it, which banging may cause as I found out once before.
