So where can one find a new boot that covers the accelerator cable as it enters the engine bay? All the major online vendors don't carry them. Are they even replaceable?

That boot comes on the complete accelerator cable assembly. I change out the whole thing everytime I get a vanagon. The last one looked to be in great shape until I removed it and only 2 strands of the cable were hanging on- cheap insurance to not get stuck in BFE. http://www.volkscafe.com/vanagon_parts.jsp?pa=p&p=190955827&ct=1167066442

I bought mine from Bus Depot. I don't have the part number anymore but you could get it from the dealer.

I was wondering about fitting something like the brake cable boots found on bicycles or something else maybe?
