Souster Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 Hi, Will a Puma defender safari snorkel fit a 300tdi defender. Sorry if this is a stupid question... but i cant seem to see why not? But i just thought i would check before. Many thanks, Josh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BogMonster Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 I think it probably would because from memory the Puma version of the Safari just goes on the outside of the wing like all the crappy snorkels, and is therefore not likely to be very waterproof. My advice would be to get a proper 300Tdi Safari which is much better and can be made 100% waterproof with relatively little work. See my pictures here http://forums.lr4x4.com/index.php?showtopic=78&st=20 for how and why Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
landroversforever Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 Why did they change something that worked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mo Murphy Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 Probably because it was cheaper to make, so bigger profit margin ! Mo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BogMonster Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 Possibly also because with the ECU in the engine bay, deep wading and Pumas are not something that will go together The standard intake plumbing on a Puma is in no way waterproof, but it isn't really a problem anyway due to the location of the electrickery. Shame really - it's about the only thing I really don't like about the Puma. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
