they well easy to do, you need to get a flat head screw driver and prise the metal can from the cv joint which is sealed by a rubber o ring. once you have prised back the metal can it will be easily seen what needs to be done, just push the end out. you will then see what they call 3 roller bearings, at the end of those there is a circlip which you will need to prise apart to get the roller bearings off the shaft, clean everything with a rag. sometimes the roller bearing can be a bit tight on the shaft so lightly tap with a flat screwdriver and hammer on the central ring not the roller bearings themselves, once removed the inner roller bearings you then slide the boot off driveshaft, remember to keep the spring and cup washer, clean up shaft and refit new ones in the oppsite way to above. fit boot cable tie small end to shaft, fit roller bearings back onto shaft replace circlip then fill with grease, it spring and cap back into end of cv joint push new gaiter over cv joint and then when fully installed lightly tap the end of the new metal can over the end of the cv joint to keep it in place hey presto new inner cv boots. but you can get driveshafts complete for like £60 each, new inner cv boots with the can can be purchased from ebay from a company called j&r they sell the outer ones only on ebay but give them a call and ask for the inner ones, there are to sizes but i believe vtr/vts ones are 70mm i did mine and went with 70mm ones and they fitted. so measure your ones first to confirm. think they about £7 each for inner c boots with cans.
thanks ....
