Hey, just got a snorkel for the coily, noticed that it's not going to fit properly as Safari intends. The indicator sits further towards the door, not where a normal WT indicator fits.

Where can I buy a snorkel that fits a coily

why not just move the indicator cheaper than buying another snorkel and if you only move it a little bit there shouldn't be any holes visible(snorkel should cover them) and also it probably won't stand out as you cant look at both sides of the car at the same time

I work for ARB so I can just give it back to em, no questions asked. I've mesured it up and where the panel is sunk for the indicator to fit will still be showing... It'd look sort of dodgy

That sucks man - I would have thought that TJM would make something. That is who makes Jimny ones.

Get an old side indicator (the flat type) and fit it in, the snorkle should cover it over. I had the same problem with
my snorkle.

I will get some tomorrow, the old style flush mount type. They mount exact the same as the coily
ones, but they sit flush on the guard.

Airtec through TJM make a snorkel that fits the coily. I bought one but haven't yet fitted it. It runs along the top of the guard entering just forward of the wheel arch. It plumbs straight into the air box with minimal direction change. I bought mine from TJM because for the longest time I didn't think any existed, then some bloke at work was driving a coily with one... so I stalked him over the next month and identified it. :oops:

They fit really well and look really 'integrated' if that makes sense, but like anything for a coily, they're expensive.

That style should fit int eh coily spot cause the recess is the same (thats what zookimonsta is getting at, otherwise get the blanking plate off a later one and fit it and stick a flush one onthe snorkel if you really want to run a light
