    Thanks guys!

    Alright, a few people have asked for more info on this snorkel.

    I got this snorkel from expeditioneers. It's an airflow Australia/America snorkel. Special fit for 05+ tacomas. And the fit is good. Didn't take much to get this thing mounted.

    Mark @ expeditioneers has it shipped asap after he got payment. And it arrived early een with a day delay due to weather.

    I guess I didn't get a pic of the contents of the bag, but you get pretty much everything you need to get it hooked up. I had to custom do mine inside the engine bay due to fact I already messed around with my factory intake.

    The install is quite simple. You get a template that you put over the fender. Mark your holes, double check, and start drilling.

    Drill these holes. Then make one of them huge. 105mm hole saw.

    Boom.

    Have a friend break his arm and back struggling with that top nut.

    Tighten nuts, plumb it up with supplied parts, and go. Fitment is tight to the body.

    I didn't put on the a-pillar attachment, it vibrates a tiny bit but I don't feel like drilling the a-pillar. It's pretty sturdy as is.

    I trimmed down about 3/4" off the height of the hat, so it sits a little lower closer to roof height. Looks perfect to me.

    I then put some electrical tape over the clamp to clean it up.

    I put some trim around the big 105mm hole too, worked perfect! Great clearance and there's no sharp edge to rub through.

    Dont forget to eat crappy food while doing this too!

    This kit is way easier to install compared to the Safari Snorkel. I was and am not of a fan of the way the Safari kit gets piped in.

    This kit with a little finesse and some common sense fits together pretty nice!

    I'm going to punch you right in the wiener next time I see you.

    Sadly it'll probably be the most action you've seen in a while and I'll probably promptly get asked out to dinner.

    You can thank that Reno guy for being an Axel Donor. Hahaha he's too broke to pay off the LT kit right now anyhow.

    250xc. Had a 2012 and loved it. 2013 is mostly the same with a few small differences I've heard. Can't wait to find out!
