Rubber boot for door???
The rubber boot that that hides the wires from car body to the door.
The question is how hard is it to change it out? Mine seems to be dis-colored and needs to be changed.
The part looks to be this one:
GM PART # 10412644
CATEGORY: Body Wiring
GM LIST: $11.17
Thanks

There are posts where people have removed the boot from the body and door, and carefully pulled the wiring harnesses out so they could clean the contacts on the connectors. Therefore, you should be able to pull the wiring harnesses out and disconnect them, slip the old boot off and the new boot on without having to remove any other panels.

Get a can of BRAKE PARTS CLEANER,,,remove the rubber accordion tube, spray it well and rub the old oxidized rubber off of it with an old rag. I bet it will clean right up. Then just spray some WD-40 on it to polish it off. Once the WD-40 evaporates, I bet it will look like new.
Let me know how you make out.
