View up under the guard. I used Locktite on the studs and nuts so they don't vibrate loose.

Hose in place through guard. I used the same 74mm saw. It was still a very tight fit for the hose, but there is not a lot of room between the wheel tub and a box section at the top of the inner guard. Could possibly go to a maximum of 80mm.

Another angle on the hose connection to the filter box. I used the original clamp on this end. I used a stainless hose clamp with nylon lock nut for the connection under the guard. Don't want anything coming loose up under the guard were you can't see it easily.

The finished job. there is a small bracket that screws to the snorkel and slips in behind the the door rubber on the "A" pillar. I used a self drilling screw to secure.

I am by no means a mechanic or have any were near the workshop skills of some on this forum, but am very happy with the finished job. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I have noticed that the photos from the other Aussie guys that have bought snorkels from Out Door Auto 4X4 have "VTTR" on the snorkel the one in the picture on the site has "?? Elephant" and mine has "Venus", so am guessing that mine is possibly a little different from the earlier ones.
