Under bonnet pic's?
Cappy
 
Okay, I've added under bonnet pics.
As you can see I avoided cutting the heater intake and grill to shreds. If I
ever remove or change the snorkel then a new chequerplate wing top will hide
any damage!!!
I had to remove the original air filter housing bracket and move the housing
further towards the radiator. It now sits on the chassis and is held in
place by a quick-release strap. The bottom of the air filter housing is
sealed but has a small manual drain tap for any condensate that settles at
the bottom. Had to use a longer breather hose to the oil filler cap.
All joint and screws are sealed with silicone sealant just in case!

Ive just joined EMORC myself. I wish theyd do something with the website.
Its needs to be much improved.
Theyres loads of people who go greenlaning but ive no idea who they are or
when they go.
Could use some forums or something to arrange greenlanes, or even a better
events calender or even a list of all members with their contact emails and
photos of vehicles etc.

BTW a lot of people who attend EMORC events are not members (my membership
has expired). Of the 5 or six people I know who go greenlaning on a regular
basis, only 1 is a member but all of them attend EMORC events now and then.
