Default Have my secondhand snorkel on :)

Well I pretty much finished off my snorkel install tonight. The worst bit was cutting the hole in the guard. I borrowed a 3" hole saw from Wooders (thanks mate) but couldn't get the angled outlet of the Safari Snorkel in through the hole, the bend was a problem. Ended up ovaling the hole out with the Dremel and the rest was pretty easy. All up it's cost me about $115.

As an aside I decided to route the hose differently so that it was all up inside the guard lining and wouldn't rub on the tyres or get damaged.

Here's a few pics.

Hole in the guard


My hose routing going in through the side of the inner guard, thats a heap of silicon on it to stop it rubbing.


With the lining back in (no exposed hose)


And with it bolted up, just need to do the windscreen bracket


Cheers
Steve
