My reasoning is that this is due to there being no fixings near the edges of this part of the snorkel.
    Every time i look at the snorkle i curse having fitted it!!
    Had mine on 4 months but hasn't warped - maybe too pliable in the tropics!

    You're right - with only 3 bolts on ours and six on a Safari so that would hug the body work a lot better.

    Monte Carlo Blue, Safari (Land Rover OEM in Oz) Snorkel. Suits the colour nicely, no need to be on a darker colour.

    I recently fitted a Safari. Quite enjoyed the afternoon putting it on. The fittings are solid particularly with the bracket to the A pillar. First purchased an Airflow but sent it back as just too poor a fit.
    Gave it a good work out up Cape York, no dramas.

    No worries mate, we're only having a dig. Like the Olympics and the Ashes, where would our two countries be without some friendly banter (sledging) ?

    Cheers
