Hey all, That is the same snorkel I have had fitted to my sportage. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/butwiggle.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/butwiggle.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/butwiggle.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/nana.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/nana.gif" alt="" /> Over all not to bad. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />A few minor imperfections in the finish. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> One problem we did have in fitting it was the bracket to hold the snorkel up on the windscreen pillar. Wasn't quite right and had to reshape it. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" /> The other issue was the supplied tubing to run from the snorkel through the inner and outer guards to the airbox. Unsure of what the material is and how long it will last before perishing. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> Seriously contemplating on having a mandrel pipe made up up to replace it or go to a truck shop and purchase some rubber bends and purchase some pipe to make a better one. I also did not like the last bend into the airbox as it looks restrictive and the tubing will be rubbing on the over flow resevouir for the radiator. If any body is interested PM me an email address and I can send you a heap of photos from having the snorkel fitted. Maybe some one could post them up on the site??? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> Cheers, Chris
