    When I started as a product designer in the mid-1970’s pretty much only the big auto manufacturers and aerospace/defense used Computer Aided Design. But at my company we joked about using Cardboard Aided Design. And not just for fit and appearance prototypes; we also did FCM, or Finite Cardboard Modeling, for structural analysis. Not very useful for stress/strain simulation, but quite good for comparing optimizing stiffness and deflection mode shapes. Of course all the design work was done on drawing boards, with sharp pencils.

    Any plan to have it fit with a DAI? I'm dying for a rack but none of them will fit with the dorkel...

    Desert Air Intake is the snorkel. It's fixed into the same hole than the racks underneath the weatherstrip. I don't really have any good pictures as I'm away from the truck for a few weeks, but I'm pretty sure you'd need to take the measurement by yourself to find a way to make it fit.

    Someone made it fits with the Prinsu Rack but I wasn't convinced by his arrangement.

    So it looks like I could figure out that mount location, and just cut two holes in that side rail.. instead of mounting a bracket because thats another part. Id have to se exactly where it lies though.

    Gotta find someone in Pennsylvania with the snorkel now... or maybe I'll arrange a little trip to the states this summer!

    Yes? And I'm in Canada, which means I have to go down to the United States if I want to go in Pennsylvania? Does it make sense?

    I like the design and would also be interested if you decide to make more.

    I've done worse, I was already thinking about driving to the keys at one point, might aswell stop in Pennsylvania if I can buy a nice roof rack along the road.
