Just finished installing the Airflow Snorkel this weekend, it is definatly a tough install but can be done fairly easily if you have all the right tools and alot of time to do it, this job definatly can't be rushed..heres s few pics..thanks to Stu for all his help on this

Looks pretty good. Going to move your antenna to the other side since it appears to be blocked now?

Nice job Wally! It looks real tough. You notice any difference in anything, pickup, noise level, etc.? Was it a long install? What was the hardest part other than cutting a hole into the fender? This is on my long list of things to do, and if it looks half as good as yours, I'll be happy.

I don't use FM or AM at all...I have satellite Radio...so I'm not worried about the antenna

the whole install is really tough...lining up the templates, cutting the holes, checking the fit , cutting again, lots of checking and cutting, and just when you think you have it, you need to trim some more, just takes alot of patients and time, it took me 2 full days to get all done. I havn't noticed any more noise coming from the intake but it seems to be working just fine, I also picked up the new Amsoil drop in air filter from JJ so I will try that out and see how it works with the snorkel...I'll keep ya posted

Looked great in person Wally! Are you going to paint the hose clamp black? Kinda sticks out.

Looks great Wally, thanks for the help today and thanks for the roof rack.

Pull the antenae and replace with a "Trail Rated" badge... or maybe even a running light there and on the other side.

Looks great!!!

It looks like one could even keep the antenna in the stock location by fabricating a spacer to scoot it out a bit so that it would clear the snorkel.

Ditto. There's something to be said about the slim and sturdy design. It's definitely not as cumbersome as the ARB.

Any more word on Rocklizard's fronts?
