    Help needed fitting snorkel

    Hi, bought a snorkel off ebay (TJM) lightly used). Looking at how to go about fitting it tonight and I assume it goes on the drivers side. The brake booster looks like it may be in the way somewhat? Do you just cut a large hole out to fit the nozzle through or get the jigsaw and cut out the whole section inside the gasket?

    Mine is a 200TDI so the air filter is over the towards the passenger side. I know this is going to be a dumb question, but what do I attach it to? I'm assuming the big can with the pipe going to the turbo is the air filter. The snorkel has a short nozzle that goes through the body, then there's another rigid piece about a foot long, but no where near long enough to get to the air cleaner of course.

    I think there's even less room on the passenger side. I think the heater box would be well and truly in the way

    Yep, 300Tdi one. What you could do though is get a 200Tdi one and fit dual intakes. That would improve things
