Home made Snorkel, what flexi pipe ?
« on: May 21, 2008, 20:51:28 »
I want to add a snorkel to my 90 NAD, got a decent length of 63mm aluminium pipe, now need to get some flexible tubing to run from the pipe to my air intake. Anyone know where I can get this from ?? what have you used ??

Don't want to pay for a complete kit

a lot of places do pre made bends, plus aluminium joiners
