YES.........i made mine , used plastic drain pipe to run along inside of wing , cut hole in wing  (screen end ) and then used flexible exaust pipe up the side of screen and then fitted a mushroom top.........

DISCO-CHRIS:
Imade mine! although you could say i cheated slighty!! from the airbox i used re-inforced plastic duct pie through the factory hole in the inner wing then onto a length of straight exhaust pipe(slightly squashed in the vice to make oval)along the top of inner wing to a secondhand defender snorkel and related flexi tube that i got for £30!
just make yourself a template out of card so as you can lay it onto the wing before you start cutting! :wink:

Pike:
ay up,go to a stainless exhaust makers,get 30" piece of stainless zorst (2.5" dia) get them to weld a bracket on while you are there,also put a bend in the top (so it looks neat)then go to a hose maker (pirtec) and get a piece of hose long enough,put a hole in wing(2.75 dia)and pull the inner wing liner out and connect it up and bobs your uncle it takes about 2hrs and saves you about £180.00 and looks as good as a mantec snorkle.It really is easy,ive done a disco 200tdi and two rangies so far.
