    Sitter snorkels

    Has any one used these snorkels are they any good I am looking at one from carddocks in the UK. They look very much like a safari snorkel there advertised for 90 pound so I'm thinking if I can get to my place for $200 it may be worth a go I was quoted $800 for a safari fitted and when I asked Tjm in Toowoomba for a quote they said they only work on real 4wd when asked what a real 4wd was they said not jeep or landrover.

    90 pounds is a tad under $180 so you wont get it to you for $200, something that size will probably cost 50+ quid in postage.

    I would right a letter to the manager, then to TJM hesd office and to the makers of Safari as these clowns obviously have to much business from the toyopootrol customers to insult other marques and ask why do the makers bother making snorkel for anything else.

    I'd check to ensure they are not just another heap chinese copy of the ones already being sold as safari look a likes that you can buy her cheap anyway. And if you are getting some one to fit it that they are willing to do it, A land rover mechanic I know had a customer appear with a copy and after being stuffed around all day with it he said he will turn away customers if they ask him to fit them . Templates was the biggest issue, they didn't align
