X2 45's and x1 90. the 45's are not quite 45 degrees, but you can adjust angle slightly with grinder. depends how you do it obviously. get two wood 30cm rulers and bolt them together on one end, and put it to a protractor and use that as your angle gauge.

I used two 90deg bend's and cut the angle of the 90deg bend to suit , if I remenber correctly the angle between the gaurd and piller is about 50deg .

but a couple of 45"s will work ok . Are you planning on running the snorkle up over the roof or an Air ram of some discription ?.

I used a factory Navara / Patrol air ram and I think it came up looking pretty good .

not the best Pic , I hadn't finnished it when the photo was taken
