What's The Secret?

I know there has to be one.
Trying to put a new boot on the shift lever on my 640.
Old hands have arthritis and not much strength. I've tried soaping and trying to stretch the bottom over using a homemade hook, but I guess I don't have the strength or technique to to pull it on.
Also tried to turn it inside out, can't do that either.
Other than finding a gorilla to do it what else can I do?
 
Jimmyjack has the answer. Drop the boot in boiling water to soften it up. Dont burn your hands, but dont let the boot fully cool either and turn the bottom bulb inside out and roll it over the shifter base.
