Hey guys and girls,

Pretty keen on installing a snorkel on my new jimny its a 2017 facelift model. All I can find is pre facelift model ones. Does anyboy know how to retro fit the old snorkels or know of a manufacturer that makes one to fit the new models?

Cheers!

I don't know of a snorkel specifically to fit the up-date / bonnet scoop models.
Many people have fitted ones originally designed for the earlier cars & seem happy enough with the fit.
I've fitted Safari ones - they leave a gap at the bottom of the snorkel body to the guard & I remade the windscreen bracket out of 3mm alloy, as the snorkel wants to sit away from the A-pillar a bit.
Take a bit of time & care with installing & unless you directly compared with an early car, you'd be hard pressed to know that it wasn't meant to look like that.
Rgs, Michael
