De snorkled

[Mark_T]

I've been de-snork'd for about 3 years. I drive on all kinds of roads, rain and shine, and I have experienced no problems whatsoever. No water getting in, no leaves, cigarette butts,gum wrappers, bugs... nothing. Perhaps I have just been lucky.

That said, I still think installing a screen is a really good idea , probably looks good too. Got a pic of the view from the outside?

No I don't have an outside pic but I can assure you it is almost invisible. You have to kneel down with a flashlight to really see the mesh. Does not interfere with the looks of the car. I changed my '02 vent cover for the '03 version as I like it better. Just covering the opening where the snorkel used to be would work just as well I imagine.

I have a friend who can do fabricating and I am running an idea by him for at scoop behind the vent that would give a bit of ram affect but not sure it would give enough to be worth the effort. Kinda like those rectangle to round brake ducts seen on 911's. Will keep you posted if it works.
