Just got confirmation from Margaret at VTTR that it will be $292US to supply & ship to Canuckland. I'll ask if there could be a better deal if we order a half dozen or so.

Well they have them for $230 plus $65USD shipping to my location, still a good $100 cheaper than another kit here that may or may not fit and would require some mod's. Delivery time is stated as 4 -5 days. Thats faster than shipping a package within Canada!
Anyone up for a small group buy? Maybe DEFBOYS and XJeeper from my neck of the woods or the boys from Oregon and Washington state? this one uses a stock air box? i need to look at the pics first as i was just going to make one.

I wonder what Mararet is thinking? Wondering why, all of a sudden, these Canadians are wanting Snorkels? Maybe the poles are melting!! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/butwiggle.gif" alt="" />

looks? Keeps you from ingesting water like this! ![[Linked Image]](http://pics.montypics.com/calapooyas/2007-11-16/1195256115_stanleysteamer.jpg) Helps with keeping dust out, and cooler air coming in.

nobody needs a snorkel, it costs more than it helps. you just need to put more rubber between you and the bottom of the creek.

yea i think a snorkel is over kill.they look cool.if you end up needin a snorkel theres alot of other stuff that would proably shut you down before suckin in water.my cone filter is about a foot higher than the top of my tire. thats probably more than i'll ever need check out this snorkel video though. i would have been crappin my pants. this guy for sure needed a snorkel.
