Depends on where you shop.
The Safari is very easy to fit compared to the other brands, mainly because you dont have to remove the wing to fit it.
Steve Ray is spot on...
Make sure you state your vehicle type, engine type and whether you have ABS or not.
The ABS difference is lenght of the snorkle along the wing.
ABS is a long wing snorkle, no ABS is shorter.
 :D

Ok then, thanks so much for your help everyone!!!

Safari it is then!

muddyjames:
I have a safari one and I think it looks the smartest out of all the makes. The others I dont think suits the disco. The mantec one for example I think looks better on a defender where the safari one doesnt look good on a defender.

My raised air intakes for the axles etc all run up the side of the snorkel and then go into the snorkel top under the jubilee clip. You cant even see they are there.

I have been through water up to half way up the windscreen and the air box was still dry as a bone.

simondarby:
I ran my breathers into the air box.  Didn't see the point of running them any higher up the snorkel, as no water will get in the air box anyway...

If it does, you're knackered anyway...

Lyndsey731:
Simondarby, I was going to do exactly the same, stick them all into the airbox, but when i spoke to a mechanic mate of mine he advised against it, he thought it could cause problems with pressure differences i.e. the pull of the air being sucked into the engine could cause a siphon effect on the axles! I take it you have had no problems with this and i wasted my time running it up the snorkel.
