Cool... when are you coming round to fit them?

[stormforce]

if you all wanted to come down i will happily fit them.Someone will have to supply a big enough hole saw though.I had to use a 86mm one for mine

Thanks for the offer Richard... but the money I'd spend on fuel driving down could buy me a new truck if I fcuk this one up.

I was dreading drilling the first hole on mine but i just went for it and by the time the arbor started drilling the pilot hole i just went for it and in a matter of seconds it was all over.
The only thing i found though was the bolt holes on the template didnt match the bolts on the snorkel so make sure the template is tested on the snorkel first.Fit the large hole for the air pipe on the template first and if the bolt holes don't match up just make extra holes.
This was on the L200 so not sure of the surf ones.MWS should be able to tell you for certain if the template was ok.Mine was only about 5-10mm out and worth checking first before any drilling

Brilliant, invaluable advice, thanks mate.

A couple of the l200 owners drilled theirs and then realised the bolt holes were out a fraction and then advised us about it.

The old adage measure twice (cut) drill once comes to mind.

At least it would be hidden buy the snorkel if you had to modify the holes.
