Hey Guys!
Ive been trying to get info on putting yeti gaiters on winter boots and have been struggling to find any meaningful info on:
a) if it is possible to fit them onto winter boots
b) how they would fit onto the boot
c) how crampon compatible they would be
d) are crampons and yeti gaiters mutually exclusive
well, I've fitted a pair onto a boot that takes step in crampons and they have gone on as shown in the images in the link:

a) it is possible to fit them on
b) they would best fit just above the sole of the boot if you want crampons, allowing the welts to be exposed
c) they are, depending on how they are fitted
d) they arent, but can be a bit tricky to make work
Overall I do like the concept and it looks like it works quite well. ive got a good seal all round and the rubber holds the gaiter in place extremely well. Cant wait to try this fully in anger! Thought i'd share that with the wider community in case anybody goes trawling through the archives and struggles to find meaningful info in the future.
