Thread: Snorkel install?

Hi Billy,
Q) How to remove air intake grill?
A) Pull on it!

Q) Removal of wheel arch and liner?
A) i) Turn steering wheel to hard right (or take wheel off altogether, which I found easiest and put on a stand. ii) If you have a mudflap - take it off. iii) There are two screws at either end of the arch - undo them. iv) Pull arch off. v) Undo plastic clips on inner wheel liner and pull liner out. (Hint: mark the holes with chalk so you know where they go).

Q) Removal of a pillar trim?
A) Pull it off - starting at the base. There are about 4 clips which hold it in place.

I did put a few photos here, when I did my install:

P.S. Good luck on getting the top rear nut done up in the guard. Even my noodle-armed wife had troubles. The scars have since healed on my forearms!

Cheers,
Rob

Thanks Rob,

I'll give it a go cheers!!

You will see an obscure reference in the instructions, to leaving the centre inner guard retaining plug out, and taping over the hole. Read this carefully. If you push this plug in once the snorkel hose is installed, you will punch a hole through it. Get a torch and check the holes in the inner guard before refitting the plastic panel. You can actually see the snorkel tube sitting across one of the holes.

Use a step drill for the holes on the bodywork.

I installed a snorkel on our last vehicle and also found the step drill brilliant.
Quite reasonably priced too.
Cheers
Steve

All done!!ImageUploadedByTapatalk1361693307.537926.jpgImageUploadedByTapatalk1361693328.714876.jpg

After I was done got the clay bar up and have it a once over then I waxed it! I can't believe how much oxidisation the clay bar removed! She looks a beauty now. Winch has been ordered and started on radio install!

Good job!

Now - 'fess up! How did you go with that nut at the top/rear inner guard spot?
