    None of the plastic snorkels will fit and look neat if you have a Rollcage. I ended up getting a custom one made.

    I have a Camel Trophy full length roll cage (which has an external front section) fitted to my 86' 110 County with a Snorkel from a UK company called Mantec. The 110 has been retrofitted with a 300Tdi. The Snorkel was a standard item from Mantec for the 300Tdi and came with fittings to suit the roll cage and was curved nicely to match it. Perhaps they have a similar set-up for the later models.

    I'm not sure if the layout will be similar to a 2007 but I'd be happy to post a couple of pictures if it would be helpful to you.

    Cheers, Iain

    Thats a good point about Mantec. The majority of the cars fitted with both, end up having the hole in the wing moved forward, and the snorkle moved forward to suit.

    Photos as requested. Feel free to ask further questions. I haven't taken any from under the bonnet but I can do if you need these too.

    Cheers, Iain







    Note: The white thing on the inside edge of the rollcage is the axle breather pipe that has been cable tied to go up to the roof line.
