Where to get strut boots?

My front strut boots are torn and I need a replacement but can't seem to find them anywhere.

I called my local Nissan dealer and they want $68.53 per each boot! TireRack used to sell KYB strut boots for like $20 but that's no longer so. I also tried the local AutoZone and Shox.com but they don't have them.

Any suggestions/recommendations where I can find the strut boots for a good price?

Thanks,
Mike

You gotta be kidding right? Retail price of the front dust boot for 95 Max is $14.97/each, and I got two for $22.48 as wholesale price at local Classic Nissan. The rear is always cheaper, but I don't need it, so have no idea what the price is.

i got the kyb boots w/ the bumpstops built in. i ordered off tirerack.com for about $12 each. you need part numbers sb102 and sb108 i think. i ordered '95 mustang front boots and '95 miata rear boots, which fit on my suspension.

SB103 and SB108. I ordered mine from the link I posted. SB103 is for front, SB108 is for the rear.

TireRack doesn't stock the KYB strut boots for the Maxima any longer, I talked to them on 8/20/04.
