Ball joint boots

I have a pair of 968 wishbones that came free with an engine but unfortunately the guy that removed them managed to tear the protective boots. I have removed the damaged boots and both ball joints look good with plenty of grease.
The 968 and 944 parts catalogues don't show the boot as a seperate part.
Does anybody know where I can source these?

Edited to add:-
Clarkes garage suggests buying early 944 ball joints and robbing the boots.
Seems a bit wastefull really.
 
You need to get one of the kits from the States or get some scrap wishbones with good covers!

It would seem daft (or not when you think of money to be made) that you can't replace a £1 part that protects a £300 part from the elements.
 
Use early golf boots, they look identical and fit on fine. One of my wishbones on the S2 has had a golf boot on it for the past 7 years.
