What you do is take the boot (and the car) to a shop that does a lot of 

convertible tops, upholstery, and the like. They can alter the boot so it 

fits. It takes about 1 1/2 to 2 hours of laber, and about $.50 in 

materials. :-) This works best if you have a harness bar, to hold down the 

boot. It's likely that the alterations will cost you the straps that fasten 

around the top frame.
