Hey mate,
Had the same problem, and eventually when TJM tracked one down for me it was for the right motor and model but different mounting points (fitted up against the lower part of the guard and not the arial). So i went home and fitted it myself in about an hour, and it worked perfectly.
I used thin cardboard to trace the rough shape of the snorkel and used the groove that fits around the arial as a reference point. I kept double checking and reshaping the cardboard until it fitted perfectly. I taped on the fender, drilled the holes. removed the fender, finished the holes and cleaned em up, and then bolted the snorkel on
If u like i can give u hand, got the tools and right size hole saw. Im in bris too. PM if u want.
Cheers
