With around 10-15 members interested in a snorkel, I am now talking with a distributor and shooting for a $300 price tag to make everyone happy. If everything works out, I will post pics & specs of the snorkel installed on my ZU, followed by taking orders. If members are still interested, I should have no problem getting these snorkels pretty quick but everything depends on the price I can get & the size of order I can place.
Stay tuned.
I've been lurking over this thread, and I can't wait to see what the result is. Though I am reluctant to have a hole cut into my VX, I love the look and function of a snorkel. I have had my VX in some deep water (up to & over the headlights) once or twice... however, I love the fact that even law enforcement can see that the VX can get through where most others can not. A snorkel would have been a nice thing to have when it was a little deeper than it looked! I can not commit to buying one yet... $$$ (and that hole thing), but never say never!![]()
I had a dream last night that I ran into deep water on a flooded back road somewhere. I remember wishing I had a snorkel when the water came over the hood of the VX. Premonition?
Well if you have a snorkel, the VX will never see another water crossing...and if you don't have a snorkel, you can expect massive flooding in your area. Just how it works
Good news: I have a great looking Airflow snorkel on order from Australia. I ordered it last week so hopefully it arrives soon.
Bad news: I haven't heard back from the US distributor about a lower price bulk order. They haven't said NO yet, just need to call them once I fit my ordered snorkel.
