Mr. Hess -

For this type of stuff, always refer to John Sim's great website:

http://www.healey6.com/replacement_parts.htm

And towards the bottom of the list, you will see:

Steering Rod Boot
Hyundai Dealer Parts
56828-21010
Cover-Dust Tie Rod

Apparently this boot is a carbon copy of the original.

Best,

Alan
