Default are strut boots supposed to be secured?

on a 99TL

the dust boots for the front struts are not secured in any way at the bottom. at the top they are held in place. if i push it up i can actually see the strut push rod. im thinking its normal since its the same on both sides, and the boots are pretty short

the rears are secured at the top and bottom(much longer boots)

any ideas if this is normal?

thanks

The struts on my old Camry also had rubber dust boots, and they were not secured at the bottom. You'll be fine.
