V70 auto driveshaft inner gaiter
 
The inner gaiters on my 2007 V70 are shot. I replaced one with a universal kit but as the inner drive hub isn't completely circular the fit was less than ideal and whilst it will pass the MOT, i wasn't so happy with the fit.

The genuine split boot i removed had mouldings to ensure a good fit.

Is it possible to buy the genuine boot alone - i can't find a part no for it anywhere.

GKN (aftermarket as Spidan and Löbro) make the OE boot.
Just go with their thermoplastic ones instead of neoprene, they last a long time.

As above, GKN is the safest brand

The one in the Ebay link doesn't look genuine. Just be aware that many inexpensive ones are good for a few months only. The Ebay one is strangely cheap
