Lightbulb CV Boots Repair - No Disassembly Required

This tool and boot will allow you to not have to take off the CV joint to replace the commonly worn out rubber boots on CV. I have not tried it, but wanted to share and see if anyone thinks it would work on all the boots on the E53?

Yeah tie rod comes apart that easily and ball joint just pop out, along with removal of the CV joint from the hub. If you believe that video, I got a bridge in Brooklyn that I'm selling really CHEAP.
