Customer Reviews
Don’t be fooled, the JLR part that most folks call a “snorkel” is in fact a raised air intake, and not a snorkel. It is not watertight and neither is the connection between the airbag and the pipe that joins the two. Good for dust, good for some splashes maybe but certainly not for deep water. And I must say, the raised air intakes might look fine on some defenders but once yours is truly kitted out they just feel… cheap. THIS, however, is a proper snorkel. Extremely high quality, totally sealed all the way to the airbox. When cutting the hole just take your time, I did mine with a Dremel. The template they give you is quite good, just don’t rush putting it on and know that the hole is intentionally small so you’ve got room to cut more finely later. A note about fitting: do NOT underestimate how tricky it is to get in there and tighten all of those couplers. Everything is perfectly cut to fit in there, but there's just not much room especially if you have big hands. Keep some lube on the couplers, get creative with ways to reach up in there with extensions to tighten the hose clamps and you'll get it. Worth the tight fit for a true 4" intake. Rock solid, it’s hit a few big branches already and doesn’t have a scratch on it. Gives a lot more confidence crossing those particularly deep waters, and I don’t mind hearing the nice suction when I get on the throttle either. Absolutely fine piece of hardware.
