Hi all, I am looking at ideas on a snorkel for my 80 series cruiser.
I am toying around getting a plastic moulded one or going for a steel one from Autobend.
What are your preferences?

The Autobend ones will require a lot of modification to fit. I gave up buying them to be honest and now just buy mandrel elbows and glue them together. Go 4" through the bonnet

Call it future proofing

I like my one, but in terms of ease for a mild offroader, Id probably go for a safari one next time.

We do genuine safari ones for $480 but you cant beat a 4" through the bonnet IMO thats what i run !
