I think the CV boots on the Yaris are amazingly durable. My OEM ones are fine. They were crap on my GTI. Eventually, an aftermarket company made a CV boot kit that I used. The kit came with a 2 piece boot, glue, and the lubricant. This design allowed replacement with the car on the ground. I did this replacement myself with the car on the ground. In this kit the boots were made out of a different material than the OEM ones. I never had another CV boot problem after installing those aftermarket boots.
