has anyone done a home made snorkel ? Just bought a rotten Disco 300Tdi for off road playing , want a snorkel but dont wanna pay £150 for a replica thing :eek:

Not bothered about looks etc , its gonna get abused ;)
 
Nope it's never been done ever ever ever!! :( So it's just as well you didn't bother doing a search on ere :doh:
 
Perhaps you could just close the forum and leave it as a searchable archive. I'm sure everything has been discussed at some point, but the point of a forum is to discuss things. Ideas and products change as does consensus of opinion, new members bring fresh ideas, so although a search will often bring up information it is not an exhaustive source of information, neither is it a conclusive consensus of opinion, and often you have to trawl through pages of off topic banter to find the few good posts. So very often new threads generate new information and ideas. That is the purpose of a forum and without new threads it simply dies.

Rant over :D

Make sure you work out what its gonna cost first. Shouldnt be too bad with local hardware store stuff but a mate of mine made his own one and it ended up probably costing more than an off the shelf one. Rofl. Does look quite cool though.
 
Mine was already on with a cone filter on top, was a peice of pipe into the wing and a bit of flexible pipe running to airbox so I used an old rubber pipe to join a 45deg angle off a downpipe facing backwards,
If im on my own I can be guilty of opening far window a smidge to hear it spool up
 
When I get round to making mine next year, I was thinking of using this rather than plastic in the hope that it wont be so easy to break.
