Has anyone used these split CV boots?

Hi, my son has a 1996 Porsche 911 993 and one of the CV joint boots/bellows/gaiters on a half shaft has perished and split. The normal fix is to remove the half shaft and replace as usual but I came across this and wondered if anyone on here has tried them?

I used one on a mini Countryman and it worked really well. They have a bit more flex than the originals ones and I didn't want to use one of the ones that you glue.

In my experience they won't last until the next MOT.

Hi, I used a glue one on a Discovery and it was still ok after 3 yrs. Maybe I was just lucky.
