Thread: Airflow Snorkel

I know this subject has been covered to death but how the hell do you fit an Airflow Snorkel to a 300TDi Discovery. The bits inside the engine bay seem simple just basic plastic buggery, butchery and bodgery. The issue I am having is with aligning the outer section using the supplied toilet paper..... sorry that should be template. I reckon I will use it as a very rough guide but need to know the following.
1) should the snorkel be parallel to the body crease or guard top?
2) should the section that goes up the A pillar follow the line of the pillar exactly?
3) should I have a spare lh guard in case?
4) how does the snorkel body join to the elbow piece that gets glued into the airbox, does it have to have a rubber sleeve over both parts inside the guard?

NZ$220 is the reason I have a brand new Airflow snorkel.

Thanks

cant say i had too much bother fitting mine tho i was a little tentative as i hadnt done one before. think i put it in the projects area.

i did photocopy the template and measured the back of the snorkel and remarked as needed as i had heard the template was out.

the template was a few mm out on two bolt holes from memory and i didnt experience any lifting away once fitted. i used polyurethane to seal it not silicone.

took all of 10 minutes to remeasure and double check the holes before drilling it.

once i worked out where the big hole should be drilled, i used bluetack to mark where the bolt holes should go just to confirm i had measured it up okay.

i was very happy with the unit itself once fitted.
