    Worst case you'd just have to customize the tubing inside the fender to fit the stock air box which wouldn't be hard...but I could've sworn I remembered reading in this thread several pages back that it should fit just fine. I'll see if I can find the posts

    If it doesn’t end up fitting, you can probably sell it on here within 10 minutes.

    Okay....I only read a comment about snow and what ARB recommends. Has anyone drove (with this new ebay snorkel) in any sort of snowfall yet and if so did it take in a lot of snow? Asking for a friend o_O

    I’d imagine you’d want to turn it around if it’s snowing very badly, I plan it.
    Snow plugged snorkel = no good

    I didn't have any issues driving through tons of snow up in Tahoe/Northern Sierras last winter. But yea ARB does recommend turning the head around for heavy snowfall, I imagine if it builds up/freezes on the face of the snorkel it could create some problems getting airflow

    YMMV. I just ran it without worrying. This was yesterday. If you’re driving in heavy snow fall I would just check it and the air box maybe every so miles. Adjust accordingly if needed.

    That's pretty much what I was thinking. Guess I'll just check it once in a while and adjust accordingly. My biggest problem here is freezing rain. We tend to get a lot of freezing rain here so keeping the ice cleared away will be something I'll have to stay on top of. Things here always start out as freezing rain and then changes over to snow and most of the time BACK to freezing rain before it ends. So its just a frozen layered MESS. Thanks for the input guys.

    Has anyone scanned in / created a PDF of the sheet that comes with a snorkel?

    Wow looks great, I didn't see that color combo.

    Do you have any left like Kens04Taco? Does it really look like that or is it the lighting and angle? I really like how his looks subtle, grey'ish, its not eye popping.
