CAC boots
It's time for a replacement for the stockers....177k is enough.
Does anyone have a preference on a maker?
or should I say does anyone have a reason NOT to choose one or the other??

Well that looks like a resounding Yeah for RiffRaff...thanks for the input all.
Unless someone posts up some catastrophic reason why I shouldn't before lunch tomorrow...the order's going in!
BTW...any of you guys here know any reason why the replacement metal cold pipe shouldn't fit my 05 EX? I still have the plastic one and I'm thinking I might as well replace it now seeing how once the boots get replaced that's going to be the weak link.

ANother Riff Raff happy customer!!!
I was at 160k on stock boots and they kept popping off. Asked all over the board like you did and it was a resounding RIFF RAFF vote from everyone. And I couldn't be happier
SIDE NOT: if anyone, including the Ford dealership tells you that these won't work because they don't have the notch like the factory ones do, don't listen. They don't need them

I just replaced mine with the riff raff boots. They are a whole lot better than the stock ones, the stock boots were thin and flimsy. Just be sure to really tighten down the clamps. Mine kept popping off because I didn't have the clamps tight enough.
