Snorkels on ebay I've been looking for a reasonably priced jimny snorkel for ages. Finally found some on ebay recently. Have a look. |

There is another similar one that comes out of the body closer to the firewall, looked better. I can't find it now. |

Thanks for the pics! Not sure which one I like the looks of best, If they were the same price I'd buy the shorter one everytime, but I haven't found one as cheap as those on ebay yet. I'm still waiting for delivery, but I'll post it up once its fitted. |

I like the look of mine much more than any other I've seen. It's tightly moulded to the pillar and the snorkel head doesn't look like it was borrowed from a Landcruiser. |

just some thing to keep in mind a friend of mine bought a cheap knock off of a safari snokel for his navara and had trouble with the air box filling up with water it turned out the snorkel was full of pin holes so he had to fork out more$$$ for a genuine safari one to fill the hole in his guard. |

Yeah fair enough, $280 ain't cheap knock off price though if you ask me. Jimny snorkels are generally around $420 while most other snorkels are $300 odd for other 4x4's so we are being ripped off for some reason. This snorkel on ebay fits superb, the kit was professional and it looks great on my vehicle. Really nice solid tactile plastic with good quality brass inserts and quality locking nut's bolts in the kit. No reason to be afraid of buying one of these if anyone's thinking of getting one. It's a good quality snorkle being sold at the right price instead of $100 odd dollars extra. I have one, take my advice if anyone wants one. |

He should have just painted it, cheaper than a whole new Snorkel. |
