Airtek make a snorkel for both sides of a prado that may fit a GQ. You'd have to check that the profile of the guard is similar enough to fit properly. The snorkels are mirror image.

it does look neat if you dont see pics from side on, take a look and you will see one is a standard GQ safari snorkel, and the other is shorter,
as in, doesnt runn all the way to the front of the guard.

I do... but if doing it again would seriously consider the newer trend of running a huge truck style inlet down the back of the cab and under the seat etc etc. You will see this on Kym Boltons truck at the XWC at Emu Creek and a successful green Gold Coast GQ at the LCMP Expo in May.

Where's the washer bottle in yours, every GQ/Maverick I've seen has theirs in the front passenger corner.

I am looking for an MQ snorkle for my GQ to make the pipe run shorter.
