Replacing manual gearstick gaitor.

I need to replace the leather gaitor on my D3 manual.
'Powerful UK' are selling the complete unit for £45

Ebay have 'leather gaitor only' for around £15.

It seems to be a 2 minute job to fit the powerful UK kit.
Just wondering if its worth the bother of faffing around trying to replace gaitor only ??

It's the same, I answer you here! I changed it, and I changed only the leather gaitor, and it did not take me 2 minutes as the powerful kit, but it would take me 5, no more! It is only to paste 4 corners on the original frame, nothing complicated, it is worth saving! that was my experience!
