  I am going to look for a new boot for my 71 vert, as it is the original, but really need to get a new one. So, where is the best/preferred place(s) to buy one? thanks

@MoparDave would be my first call.  Not sure if Legendary carries boots.

My vote is Legendary Auto Interiors.

Looks like Legendary is the place. I have never bought a boot before, so a question I have, do the boots come ready to install and already have the clips fastened to the boot, or do they still need attached? thanks guys

Mine came already attached . . .

Mine came already attached . . . 

Thanks for the confirmation , I like to be sure, as we all know what happens when we ASS-U-ME something.

Just saw this, sorry.
I got mine from Legendary. I know for a fact that the clips were installed BUT i believe the snaps weren't, they came loose. I think they do that to compensate for minor location discrepancies with the panel. Of course, this is all IIRC.

HMMM been a long time but I don't think I had to do anything to the boot . . . just slide it into the rail on the backside of the rear seat . . . . and clip it down.

Last e-body boot cover I got had the clips installed, but I had to install the snaps.  I didn't fit really well, either.  I think I got it from Year One at the time. 

I would go Legendary now.  Never had a problem with their stuff.

Now that you mention it, I do think we had to install the snaps . . .

Talked with a vert owner at Spring Fling and he had ordered a Legendary Boot and said the fit was horrible. I let him know I had just ordered one and sure hope it fits better than he described, and now others saying the fit is less than good. Now I am wondering, if it was a good move or not. time will tell

[Spikedog08]

It has been about 12 years since I got mine and at least then, I think the fit is just fine.  Not sure if it is the same today?

Thanks, I feel a little better.

Agreed, clips are in place you need to install snaps....  I've seen boots that seemed to fit very loose & the immediate suspect it the boot itself when often the real culprit is the back seat which gets bent rearward by overzealous (or overweight) passengers....
