Howdy partners,
After reading a few different posts regarding the removal of the intake snorkels I decided to have a crack at it on the weekend. Yes, it was a bit of a pain to get the vent out but was pretty much smooth sailing after that.
I had just washed my car prior to doing this and was alarmed at the amount of water that was resting just inside the intake vent. Because of this I got a bit scared and made my own alteration to the snorkel then put it back in to minimise the chance of water running into the intake box with the snorkel removed completely. Basically I just cut the snorkel at an upward angle so that there was some protection against water running into the intake box.

As for the noise, yes it's a bit louder but the intake is on the passenger not drivers side in Australia so I will need to get others to drive it while I listen
