I'm making a snorkel out of 3" exhaust for my Sierra. I need ideas for securing the pipe to the windscreen. Anyone got ideas/pics? |

i was thinking of making one with the same sort of idea but you can buy the snokel head from arb for 78bucks then just need 2 x 45 and 1 x 90 bends and some straight pipe weld it up and polish look a millon bucks |

This was my plan, except I got 2x 90's. Cheaper than getting 3 bends. And I robbed a top from work so total cost- $0. 
I just need ideas for fixing pipe to A pillar. Don't really wanna just do the self tapper thing if I can help it. |

you should be able to use the same holes as the standard radio antenna uses? |

Good idea! Didn't think of that. I was going to use the aerial holes but aren't they self tappers? May not be strong enough. I picked up the pipe yesterday and it's pretty heavy.... maybe too heavy? If I can mount it well enough it can be used as an exo too!!

I got a snorkel head from Gibbs Truck Parts. Same as the Safari one but only $30 |
