Snorkel was created by paradox1001
I'm wanting to fit a snorkel to my jimny
I've see a few different ones on eBay under£100
I was wondering what type others have fitted
Is there and preffered ones that are better than others and is there any I should be avoiding

The only one i would personally avoid is the one supplied by
LR Challenge 4x4 as it's got a fixed head so if you smash it you simply can't just fit a new one
all the different makes are made of same material LLDPE
so make your own choice ;)

I'm also currently looking at snorkels available. Has anybody used the short version. Are they harder to fit and pipe up? I'm tempted to go for one as they look better than the standard one's that run down the wing. But there isn't much info offered to the differences and regarding fitting

Is it easy enough to run the pipe behind the wing, or is it quite tight for space? How much are looking for it?

Plenty of room with the arch liner and air tube removed. Hardest bit is fitting the flexi hose to the square outlet. Best done prior to fitting. £60

the air inlet squiggly thing in the wheel arch is a pain in the arse to get out and bin on a VVT jim, but inlet to airbox is round at leas. Being an electrician, not a mechanic, it took me nearly an hour to get that bugger out!
