I couldn't be bothered waiting any longer, so I purchased a Safari Snorkel from First Off Road ( First Four off Road ). I also got the optional stainless steel grill to suit and the Mantec wading kit. I don't intend on tackling too many water crossings, and especially not deep ones though after hearing about the horror stories of the auto ECU underneath the passenger side front seat being destroyed by water.

Hasn't arrived yet, actually hasn't been sent yet as still waiting on one of my guards to arrive so that they can send the complete package.Quote:

You can e-mail them and they are pretty responsive at replying with quotes.
It didn't take long to arrive. Maybe 4 working days. I've had a few packages now come in very quickly from the UK.Quote:

178GBP is about $272 as of 10/06/11 which is a lot better than any retailer here in Australia can do for a Safari. This markup is a disgrace if you ask me. I've sent an email to them and we'll see what it comes to.
Yeah, First Four where great to deal with.Quote:
