whats the best way to fit a snorkel to a 2.25 petrol 90?

i dont want to cut big a hole in the body, does any one make a kit that fits where the grill is on top of the drivers wing?

You could make something similar to what i made.

If you put it through the hole where the heater grille is, you lose the heater. You might be able to come through the other wing. Its just a longer route.

what to look a bit like mine??

i dunno where or what the hose came from but it comes of my airbox on the N/S across the front,under the expansion bottle,i made a plate up the same shape as the plastic vent thing & then came out there & made 2 small brackets out 27mm wide ally flat bar ,bolted them to the wing & cable tied the tubing to the brackets & windscreen hinge
