Where to find dustboots
I have a torn dust boot on the wires coming into
the headlight motor. Anyone know where I can get one of these besides the dealer??

I don't think it is worth trying to track one down, if you even could, as the dealer only wants ~ $13 for it. And if you don't have one close, just mail order from a dealer.
BTW, you are going to have to pull the pins out of the plug body to get the wire through that tiny boot hole. So you are going to want to get a pin removal tool or cook something up on your own. Radio Shack used to have them pretty cheap. The pins have a little tang bent out that catches on a ridge in the plug body. The tool is inserted and pushes the tang flat so it no longer catches and you just slide the pin out.
