split a CV boot on my lux on the weekend, what is the general consensus on genuine CV boots vs aftermarket? quality, durability, price (i can guess which one is going to be more expensive!) etc

cheers

i could definately notice a difference between repco ones and genuine ones.. the clamps with the repco ones were useless. repco $16, genuine $70
