western Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 (edited) if it's a Genuine LR part not from any other supplier, then LR should be able to assist, but yours could be a early Mantec item so try Mantec http://www.mantec.co.uk/contact.cfm send a few photo's & any details that maybe stamped or marked on the snorkel. or it might be from http://www.masai-lan...sed-air-intake/ Edited January 5, 2012 by western Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UdderlyOffroad Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 If you mean a CofC to confirm it complies to European union regulations, and can therefore carry the 'CE' mark, a copy should be included in the box. Sometimes it's the last page of the instruction manual... Also, I appreciate you are translating from Spanish, but are you sure you mean certificate? Not 'declaration' of confirmity? There is a difference - (declaration is essentially self-certification, a CofC isn't). Let us know if Mantec come up with the goods Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickwilliams Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 The CE mark isn't relevant - it does not apply to components for road vehicles. If anything what you need is an E-mark, which is the equivalent process but for automotive components. However, if there is no UNECE regulation specifically concerned with air intake parts then there is no e-mark requirement and you will have to meet whatever rules the local country (Spain, in this case) want to apply. The UNECE Regulations are here: http://www.unece.org...n/welcwp29.html The E-mark regulations do not generally require a certificate or declaration to accompany the product, as would be the case for the CE mark.

western Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 speed rating & load ratings are embossed on the tyre sidewall, the tester should have looked there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonmlb748 Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 if only it where that simple ,he wanted letter from bf goodrich stating the bleeding obvious.once had to go for a retest due to removing centre seat. funny thing is they've never checked some thing as obvious as the seat belts ,all the times I've been throu. god knows how you get a one off Harley through the test.
