Why are people hell-bent on pre-formed rectangular plastic snorkels? It seems it would be very, very simple (and cost about $75) to make one using 2" thin-walled aluminum pipe and silicone couplings. Why pay $150 or more?!
I will be making one for my '95 SR soon, and I would be more than happy to assemble a kit w/ instructions if people with other generations were interested. Rest assured, it won't cost anywhere near 450 pounds. That's absolutely insane.

1. Because the rectangular plastic snorkels look like they were an OEM accessory and some were.
2. Everyone know a snorkel is a magnet for the opposite sex and pipe just won't get it.
3. It's all about the look and plumbing pipe just won't do it.
4. Pipe looks like a vent for some plumbing fixture under the hood.
5. Pipe is............ I guess I've gone far enough with this, but to each their own.

I will post up the DIY when I do it. I've got a trip to DV/PV in January so it will be before that. I will try to post as much info as I can.
I didn't put one on my last trucks because I didn't want to hack into a fender, but this one has some body damage anyway and I don't have to feel guilty. Win!

Because the last I checked I lived in the good ole USA and I can pick and choose my accessories so long as I can afford them LOL!!
Looking forward to your DIY thread.
Part Number
SneakyNinja...do you have the TJM part number? I spoke to Wes today and he asked if I would look on the forum to see if it was available from the person who installed the snorkel before (as far as I could tell you are the only one who has done it). They have the snorkels in but have yet to do the test fit on an actual truck (guy from the OC was going to go but so far TJM has not been seen the truck). Wes said the prices would be around $350- $380, so a bit pricey.
Thanks,
Chris
