W210 steering shaft boot - warm summer breeze from under dash!

My wife complained about the warm breeze from under the dash with the sunroof open, I found the rubber boot that previously sealed the interior from the great outdoors is in two pieces. Anybody else had to replace this? How does the joint come apart or is there a repair kit like some CV joint boots have?

I haven't looked at it from below yet so excuse me if the answer to joint removal is obvious.

TIA,
-Tom

Check your booty, Check your booty! (sing it)

Fro future reference:
Got the replacement from Fastlane, one bolt removed and a half hour labor and it's fixed! What a return on my time and $ (the boot was cheap). Thanks again Mercedesshop.com!!
