clutch cable and carb boot

[runabout]

I did a search on this topic and I am coming up short...
I need the carb boot for the 88 K5 ... I have heard from one source that other year carb boots will fit if I cut the "tabs" off... Can anyone confirm this please?
I also am looking for an 88 clutch cable again not available anymore... will other year cables work?
Thanks for any info or opinions..
Regards
