I was looking for a snorkel for my SWB, as no one listed for the frontera/amigo/mu, I bit the bullet and ordered a Safari 100HF.

Its not a perfect fit, as the rodeo arch flare isn't as big, but it fits ok.

If I was going to do it again though I think i would re-shape the wing to let the bottom of the snorkel sit more towards the centre of the vehicle.

The intructions that come with the snorkel work ok, apart from the hole for the inner wing. Its easy enough to work out where to put it though.

Any Questions?

Just a quick tip, when you fit a snorkel to a Mu/Frontera, stick the gear lever gaiter down with plenty of sealant. I got stuck in some deepish water at the weekend (Half way up the doors) I was ok till the Landrover behind me came in to give me a pull. The pressure from his bow wave popped the gaiter. Two seconds later I was full to the bottom of the CD player

Before the gaiter popped I only had a slight weep from the passenger door seal
