Wel, at leastl you can tell I was using the search function...

lol. On the off chance someone else stumble upon this thread, I've heard of SikaFlex being used a LOT in the boating world. So assuming the product hasn't been discontinued in the past decade, a good boating supply house might just have what you are (were) looking for.

Any automotive glass shop will have access to a caulking tube urethane that will work. It's the same stuff used to seal windshields into their frames. Silicone has a hard time sticking to any kind of polyethylene like the snorkel is made of.

I couldn't find Sika 227 in the states when I did mine but I did find either 225 or 221 on amazon, in black. I tried to stay away from silicone, have used it before, hated the off-gassing it did, but if you get something that is sensor-safe IE won't damage your maf/intake sensors, should be fine. Whatever you get use as much as possible for large connections and between the neck plate and the A pillar. Bonus for the sika is it is ridiculously sticky.
