I would like to fit a
snorkel to my Jeep, however there are no after market ready to fit kits available for my model. Before I start cutting I would like to hear from anyone who's build their own. After all, why re-invent the wheel (
snorkel) again
Thanks
Mannie

home made is usually fabricated steel tube or PVC. Steel is much more professional but cannot flex, and if you need a
snorkel you probably hit areas where flex could be good in tight spaces. I made my own which could be classed somewhere in between. I used large diameter flexable tube for the whole length all the way into the engine with a ricey pod filter in the way. I put a bit of pvc pipe to keep the flex tube straight where it gets bolted along the windwscreen. The finnished idea is that you have a clean look with no joining, flexable, easy to make. It still looks home made but I use it to keep
water out of the engine not win awards for the most brand names on one car.
