Guys,, is it a case of cutting the wing to allow the (wrong) snorkel to mount to the wing and then feed a pipe across the engine to the opposite side?
nope, unless you want to bodge it
post some reasonable quality pictures of the engine bay

Cheers,
taken on board, but actually I'm a helicopter engineer....
and i used to drive a green defender for a living...
...never owned one or modified one... thats why i'm here, as well as to get to know the community..
So not going to be beaten by this, prefer the look of the Mantec one i have as well...
so a heads up, with some advice is most welcomed..

Thanks lanny man 90...
I think the hardest part will be linking the snorkel aperture on the inside of the wing to a connecting hose...
Maybe i'll need to make a manifold box to connect the snorkel aperture on one side and then the connecting hose on the other....
I guess i need to take a look at the wing first...

as bear says mate, sell your 300tdi snorkell on e bay you will prob get more than ya paid, buy a 200tdi snorkel, and check ya engine is breaving thro the lower vent on ya left wing, but if it really is a 300tdi in there then you may be better with the snorkel you have because as we all know 300s breave on right ,200s breave on left , so if yours is a 300 breaving thro left they have rerouted the breaver pipe any way so might be better to route it to the rightwing and cut in the snorkel you have( less pipe work), i would of thought you wood be able to see a big air pipe going from left to right if that was a 300tdi fitted in a 200tdi engine bay, i bet its a 200tdi after all this, defo aint a td5, get pictures of the engine bay up and these guys will help they love picces.
