I have 2 ideas: 1) Don't bother -- unless you discovered the damaged boot *very* soon after it was damaged, dirt and water have already penetrated into the joint and you'll need a new axle fairly soon (once you start hearing the "Clack! Clack! Clack!" noise on sharp turns) 2) Get yourself a universal CV joint boot kit. Here's an example: http://www.shop.com/0-p34930623-k36-g1-s.shtml These boots are "split" so that they can wrap around the joint. Installation involves simply cutting away the old boot (clean the joint and repack with grease as best you can), wrap the new boot around the joint, and tighten the clamps around the boot. Good luck

Yes, drive it to the nearest repair shop

From your question I take it that you have never done this. The process is basically the same for all cars. But if you don't have access to tools[it would take quite a few] I would suggest getting a split boot, then you can just cut the old one off and easily install the new one with almost no tools.
