    whats the info on these for super wet climates? Where i live, it literally rains like 8 months out of the year. I'm a little worried about water intake through the snorkel.

    No worries, the snorkel head expels the water by design.

    ^^^^^

    you may want to check more frequently than we'll have to, but I don't think it'll be prohibitive.

    I added a drain to the "air box" portion of the intake, just in case.

    Ended up installing mine most of the way but I'm going to pull the fender to reach the last bolt/verify the hole doesn't need filing. The stud isn't sitting all the way in. Definitely having trouble with the antenna bezel so I drilled that some tonight (ridiculous it wouldn't come off on a 14)

    Installed mine last night. Happy with the install but it is quite frustrating while doing it. Chris got the two important/obligatory pictures. The plunge of the hole saw in a perfectly good fender and the finishing off with a scew through the final clamp.

    Didn't realize the amount of wind noise over 50mph I would experience from it, but just let's me know its working.

    And finished also, got it seated all the way. Now I have a few extra scratches/chips in paint but oh well, pay to play. Antenna bezel is all screwed up to but radio still works so I'm not worried.

    I don't notice much wind noise on mine?

    Found out I had a section of the inner fender hanging down and slapping the tire. I'm guessing that is what was making the noise. Tried tucking it back into the wing of the bumper but may have to just remove it.
