You have to pull all those caps off and you kit pushes inside the hole.
I used a spark plug cap and pushed it over the outside.
Job is easy.

See on the fitted pic, where the hose pipe which was supplied is slotted over breather exit then ive put the pipe clip thing straight into that? You got two other reducers which im guessing went from the hose pipe into the reducer clip but the diameter of the hose and the black reducers was too different so the hose wouldnt have tightened round it snugly??

Did anyone else use the black reducers aswell between the hose and the reducer clip?

Cant see any probs the way ive did it though, fit nice and tightly into hose and cable tied on.

I've been poking around under mine these last few weeks and noticed that on top of the axles there are what appear to be "thimble" shaped covers that should pop off - guessing these need removing and the kit pushing in to the holes. :unsure:

So for the tight fist approach (having read this and the previous thread and what kirkynut says), all i need is a couple of jubilee clips, length of garden hose pipe and some cable ties, then push the hose over the breather and route them up the chassis to the front of the bulkhead?

Yes. The caps do take quite a bit of prising to get off, but as long as you can seal the hose onto it with a jubilee clip, you should be ok.
I fed mine right up into the snorkel head (and back into the airbox) as I had extra pipe and didnt want to cut it !!
