    Yes! I sell a snorkel alternative. Some people love the look of a snorkel and some people hate it but want a raised air intake.
    Here is some information of what my kit includes.

    FAQs
    Q:
    What is a cowl intake?
    A: The Cowl Intake/Cowl Induction kit draws air from the high-pressure area at the base of the windshield which is also cleaner, colder, and denser. In addition to clearing room in a cramped engine compartment for additional batteries, compressors, air systems etc. It also raises the intake/inlet substantially higher than factory without adding a cumbersome snorkel.

    Q: How is this any different than a snorkel?
    A: A cowl intake, as an alternative to a snorkel, refers to a modified air intake system that draws in fresh air for the engine from a high point on the vehicle's cowl or near the windshield, rather than using a traditional snorkel mounted on the side of the vehicle. The cowl intake is stealthy and hidden.

    Random stuff. Oh! and converted to non ADD 4x4.
    I have a Dobinson and the template was rolled in the box. I have installed Safari’s and eBay knock offs and they are the same. The only difference is that Safari, the original developer of the product, packing is top quality comes with instructions and cardboard template in comparison to the paper template that comes with the knock off ones.
