long as you use common sense and measure everything 3 times it will fit just fine.

I would have thought it would be a benefit given there is a more direct flow of cold air into the engine. Matt

it uses less fuel, esp when cold and wet.

it is only a very small amount but it does help.

the other big bonus is it makes room for a second battery.

A snorkel is a snorkel , does not matter what brand, as long as it is sealed correctly. A home made job would be just as good though not as attractive. I have had both the Safari (Disco & Fender) Air Flow on the Rangie and both are good. Price would be the main consideration, with Safari being a little overpriced for what is just a piece of moulded plastic.
