    Be cool if someone came out with a system that would come out from the rear of the hood, up the passenger side lower window, wrap around and up the pillar. The part between the hood and cab could be trimmed, it's just plastic. The tube going through that area would be oval shaped to fit. Maybe I explained this right lol. Anyways, cheaper to replace that plastic then cutting a hole in your fender..

    Most of the snorkels that go straight into the fender normally would run along, but those people have fiberglass fenders so the snorkel can't run along the side.
    This would normally run along the side of the fender but @sytfu510 has fiberglass fenders.

    This is what I was thinking. Would be really easy with my glass fenders. Just some aluminum tube and two bends. Then just use some couplers once inside the fender.

    Will be quite interesting if this semi-works. I'd worry about the small opening for air though. Will the engine get enough? Is this a TJM product?

    We all know you will make it fit and look awesome. The real question is how many LED's will it have when you are done. :boink::rofl::rofl:

    Not too concered. where it meets the fender looks similar to the shape of our Tacomas. :fingerscrossed:
    And I was thinking a single high powered spot light out the top of the snorkel so everyone on TW can see me:rofl:

    Shit bolted onto other shit, and junk.
    Perhaps red/amber rotating beacon for low flying aircraft.


    Nevertheless, excited to see the end product
