Safari Snorkel Installation Instructions

Hi there I was contemplating fitting a Safari Snorkel to my D4 and was trying to track down installation instructions. Want to check out whats involved before deciding if I can do it myself.

If anyone could email me copy of instructions that would be great. If tried to find a copy on line but as yet cannot find instructions relating to D3 or D4's.

G'day.

I was looking into this as I was thinking of getting one of the cheaper copies from ebay.

Found this link with Russian text, but pretty good pictures. I reckon the numerous holes & cutting might have put me off though...

Read that with a factory fit snorkel you can expect 15% worse fuel economy...

I never found that to be the case with my D3 after the RAI was installed. I also did not find much difference on my D4 after Safari Snorkel was installed. 8)

That's good to know - something I read in this month's issue of LRO.
