Snorkel fitted! was created by Bigchridy
Fitted the snorkel this afternoon and took a few pics so you can see what the snorkel.es snorkels look like.

I didnt take as many pics as I would have liked because I spent the morning doing the rear wheel bearings which took longer than expected!!!:(

Anyway here are the pics hope you like.

Cheers mate. Well chuffed with it!B) I've seen a few cheap snorkels on Landies and this seems to be far superior quality.

What type of electrical tape have you used and where from? ;)

Is the snork material fairly soft, as in not as hard or as brittle as grp?

Nice job. :)

Reaper: Its from spain. Its a company called Snorkels Europe. There web site is www.snorkels.es

Keefe: Its the same sort of material as a safari snorkel that you get on Landrovers and possibly the same as a TJM snorkel (altho I havent seen a tjm snorkel up close). It looks as tho it will give a bit if you hit it. Its hard to say as I dont intend to try bumping it or rolling the Jimny!:)

Ordering was done via email. I had to send the money by a bank transfer which is something I have never done before. Once the money cleared they sent me the snorkel and said it would be 2-3 working days. It turned up in 2 days!

They were in touch with me via email throughout the process and answered any questions I had very quickly. I would definantly use them again if I ever need to.
