no need to remove the ram, the left boot has a steel ring bonded into its inner end, just lever it off carefully.

The way I did it couple of times:
- Undo the RAM from the rack to get full movement left/right (Gti/Rallye RAM limits the movement when turning right)
- Turn the rack one way fully and measure how much it comes out
- Move it the other way and measure again on the same side
- Add up the measurements and divide by two to find out what is the mid-point
- Move the rack so that it is at the mid-point
- Fit the steering wheel straight
- Re-attach the RAM
