Default Pentastar snorkel avail??

Hey guys,
Recently picked up a 2013 JKUS and this is my first jeep.
Had it for a month now and loving it. That said when i purchased it i ordered it with an arb bull bar (fitted this week) and safari snorkel which to my knowledge does not exsist yet. Pretty p#*%ed off about being messed around by dealer but feel i cant really do anything.
I think AEV snorkel exists so does anyone know anywhere in melbourne who has stock and can fit??
Thanks in advance for your help.

The AEV Is pretty easy to install as well if you feel happy wielding an angle grinder to your new jeep. (Or you just get the AEV heat reduction hood which looks the ducks nuts IMO and it fits without any hassle at all.)

The AEV will probably work out cheaper than the safari as well.

Personally i think the AEV ( and there Chinese copies..... ) are the least convoluted solutions to fitting a snorkel to a JK.

Some of the other options just twist and turn like a mad snake under the bonnet, whereas the AEV is simple and direct - taking up no underbonnet space.

If its a styling issue then choose what you think looks the goods but keep an eye out for convoluted plumbing.

I've just been looking at the Safari snorkel and noticed that it looks like the pipe work runs under the guard (wheel arch), which looks to be exposed to rocks and sticks etc..

Can anyone confirm this is the case? I've spoken to the local ARB outlet, who was very unsure of how it fitted up.
