how hard will it be to move the indicators forward. so that there not in the way of the snorkel. i cant really think of anything else. cause i think the airbox needs to go where yours is nic. ive got the car booked in friday so they can build the snorkel so i gotta work out what design i want b4 then.

I've always thought this was one of the better looking snorkels out there - simple, easy, lets you keep your indicator at the rear, has a bit of flex if you lean over on it and can be easily replaced if you total it. 3" aluminium if I remember correctly. Will probably build similar for mine but with ram air top.
Not sure whose car sorry - have the pics saved to my PC - creds to whoever built it.

me217.
remember all the pics are off std zook 1.3 engines or converted to run drivers side inlet.
vit engines like mine and urs are set up for passenger side inlet with custom mounts.
for your airbox mounts. what i did was put the rubber connector on and see where the airbox wants to sit, and make to suit.
i have a dual batt at rear or engine bay so couldnt go from rear. mine is S shaped at the airbox end to go into guard and then down to airbox

yeah. just my biggest problem is my side indicators. once i work out wat im doin with that prob its pretty much all worked out.
this was my original idea. but it went right thru the indicator
and this is my newest idea. i was just wondering if havin this many bends will affect anything.

Every bend will restrict air flow...

version 1 is best.
it can be a bit tricky to get the 3" over the guard and into the airbox.

yeah i was thinking sorta a mix between the 2. take it into the guard as close to the front as possible while allowing the airbox to stay at the front as well. i guess ill just go in tomoro and talk to the guy making it and see what he reckons. cause i havnt discussed anything with them yet its just booked in to get done lol. ill post some pics of it when i get home tomoro. if i get time.
