it might help someone so i thought id post it


firstly make sure you have the right tools ,listed in the fitting instructions ,drill, spanners,file,screwdriver,and lots and lots of sillicon sealer  



always check you have all the bits supplied before fitting




remove airbox ,blank off air hole with plug supplied ,use sillicone,grind ribs off the side with  a grinder

mark and bolt new vent to airbox
mark around new vent and cut holes for intake pipe



bolt intake to airbox using sealer,nuts and bolts
find a clean wing (yea right ) to stick the template to ,and using a suitable marker draw along the outlines



drill and cut using hascksaw whenever possible ,tidy edges with a file



make a sutable hole in flitch and using rubber strip put along edge
put snorkle in place ,tighten the 5 nuts and secure to door piller ,the mounting plate is angled ,with 3 bolts and 5 pop rivets




once thats done you can install the airbox ,make sure all is sealed well ,the snorkle comes supplied with jubille clips and a rubber tube seal



and after all that the end product


thanks to solihull mick for technical advice and his modelling qualities ,yes him in pics lol

cardiff_gareth:
sorry to reserect his thread from the grave but I have sold my fishing gear and now have some money to get a snorkel. I'm trying to keep it on the cheap as I have many repairs to do but I'm not looking to do the DIY version, looks too complicated for me LOL !
I've seen on ebay that southdown sell the bits seperatley and they can do me a complete seconds snorkel for £130 I think it was. The only snag that I wanted to know is with the head , does it push water out like the safari or does it enter and go down.

Here is the head here:

I've also been shopping about and the cheapest place for a Safari is Paddocks at £169 delivered. Does anyone know anywhere cheaper or is that about the best you can expect to pay for one :?:
