Dual Snorkels (R/hand snorkel)

Post by 6.5 rangie »

Well finally the R/hand side snorkel i was getting made is done, so if anyone is after a snorkel to match there L/hand Rangie Spares snorkel then i may be able to help as we have the mould for this. Not sure on the pricing yet as i haven't been told what it costs to make them and then paint it, LRA are selling theres for $330 inc gst so i'm sure i can do it cheaper than that, will keep you posted on the price though.

Loan and Landy Man your both right! :D

Anyway i have seen the Fibreglassers and they heve given me a price.
You can purchase these blank (no paint or holes drilled, straight out of the mould) for $150 with screws,
Or $220 drilled and painted 2 pak satin black and with screws,
Haven't priced the air intake yet but with it supplied it will be the above price with the cost of intake added.
Thats the best i could do on price, still cheaper than the L/hand LRA ones.
plus postage and handling, gst included

well went down to Damien's last night to have a look at the new snorkle.

Right hand side to match the left hand one as supplied around Melb.

FANTASTIC ordered one on the spot.

We now have the option of either left or RIGHT hand snorkles or both.

yeah agreed here too, i reckon there'd be a fair bit of interest in a LHS version.

Sorry to those who wanted snorkels but they will be a bit late as the fibreglassers are that flat out that they ran out of time to make any this week, will hopefully have them late next week.
