Default New Trailhawk

Picked it up yesterday. Got the safety group, towbar and brake controller, front windows tinted, panoramic sunroof, and hardwired crash cam. Still learning how to use all it's features but very pleased so far.
Currently looking at the usual aftermarket stuff to see what fits the 2017 model. Not sure I like the look of the Airflow or Murchison snorkel - does anyone have pictures (front and side) of them on a lighter coloured vehicle so it is easy to see the black snorkel? It is going to show up on mine so I want to get a good look at them.
Cheers,
Keith

Just dropped in to the dealer to get the battery on the KL replaced and k ow and behold they just received a brand new Grand Cherokee Tailhawk diesel! In black with gold flecks looks excellent. Didn't realise they would be available in diesel.. if I hadn't lost my job on Thursday I may have walked out with more than a new battery!

Thanks for the picks Numb Thumbs.

SeaComms - The Trailhawk only comes in diesel in AUS.

Cheers,
Keith

Thanks Phoenie, That does distinguish the snorkel from the car quite well. I've looked at the thread NT started too and I'm still not sure which way I'll go. Happy that both are good quaility and have had the Airflow on the Commander for 9yrs but love the look of the Trailhawk and not sure that either compliment those looks....more thinking to do.

Next question - I have a new UHF with all controls on the mike, where are others with this style putting the main unit?
