Hi,making me own snorkel as i cant see how suppliers can justifie the prices they are charging at the mo!!!...ok,,ive bought the top piece,i went for the open faced top instead of the mushroom one...as i was told the mushroom ones were for diesel and the open grilled desighn were for petrol...ok.....ive got the 2 an a half inch pipe an flexi hose too,,,just a couple a things i need to know... 1. how is the flexi hose joined to the air box?,,as the air box intake pipe is small,,do i make hose smaller or or put a bigger hole in box? 2. do you need to drill any holes in the bottom of the flexi hose to let out moisture or water?...as snorkel top will be forward facing and was thinking of rain snow e.t.c entering the snorkel. 3. any previous experience in cutting the wing wanted,,,any dos or donts,,ways to mark out and cutting suggestions..dont really want to wreck me wing,,lol..and pictures would be helpfull here... 4. and finaly ive got a k&n free flow cone filter on at mo so this will be for sale when done,,any takers..??? ...ok thanks a lot guys,,all the best,,,wayne....

hi m8,,cheers for that..look forward to seeing your build piccies...so i best stick to 37.12.5x15s then..the reason i was contemplating the 37.13.50 x15s was i found them as a wheel an tyre package on ebay for 750 quid whitch i thought wasnt too bad a deal,,,right back onto evilbay for sum 37.12.5x15s then... ..thanks again for that mate...
