Modding a defender snorkel
« on: July 19, 2007, 16:27:11 »
How easy is it to mod this to fit a Disco:

If you were to make a hole in the wing and then use some of this:

then do you think it could be done :?:

Easy job or a lot of modding and waste :?:

Anyone done it :?:

If you brought 1 of these it would be much easier. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=110145357566&ssPageName=MERC_VI_RCRX_Pr4_PcY_BIN_Stores_IT&refitem=110143276287&itemcount=4&refwidgetloc=active_view_item&usedrule1=CrossSell_LogicX&refwidgettype=cross_promot_widget


so one of them above, some of that flexi pipe and then the defender snorkel and your on your way  :?:

hmm, much cheaper and back within my budget  :P
