20k miles both front cv boots going bad

Hello all, changed em at 20 & 21k miles ago, one side is a febi and the other gbk lobro, both are crap! and perishing already, cannot believe the lifespan of these things. And although my mechanic can knock em on and off in no time he charges a an arm and a leg to do so, just what I need at christmas.....images are when from when the car is on a jack during front tire changes.....but perished they are.....any recommendations on better quality type? or patching up current ones to last a little until i get to mechanic?
