I have it on good authority that everything I add to my 4 Runner increases the horsepower. 20HP snorkel, 1HP per sticker, 500HP per patch. lolz
But seriously this is awesome! Great job!

There are only so many ways to skin a cat. I appreciate a good product at the correct price.

They're listed as "backorder" since they haven't come in yet. They're due this next week (last week of November). Black Friday deal is going. Check out Dobinsons 4x4 Snorkel Kit for Toyota 4Runner 5th Gen 2010-2020 4.0L V6 - Exit Offroad front page for details.

Looks better then the ARB, it doesn't stick out as much as the ARB.

Holes...
A.) The cutting is surprisingly simple and the template makes it dummy proof (I have an ARB but it looks identical). If you don't have the right tools, get a cheap Harbor Freight "dremmil" with small metal discs and a step drill bit.
B.) You don't have to drill into the A-pillar like this or the ARB might lead you to believe. It's added protection, sure, but I think the main reason is to avoid vibration on the highway. I and a few others used black two-sided tape (doubled-up) to keep it snug against the pillar. That also makes the reversal process a lot easier... now you're just replacing the fender if you decide to go back.
C.) Hell of a good price... $300?! I would have went this route simply to not have the "SAFARI" logo embossed all over my current snorkel.
D.) Install is easy but the trickiest part was connecting the rubber between the airbox and the snorkel itself. Not impossible, just 3 minutes of pure frustration.

Exactly. On the A-pillar just use some VHB tape with some 3M VHB adhesion promoter. It will hold better than a rivet. Not even joking.

How about one for the 4th Gen?? ARB said they would a couple of years ago but have not. Wouldn't you love to own the market with ZERO competition?

LOL, they've had it done for 2+ years, but one guy that calls the shots said it was ugly, so they didn't put it into production. Then they proceeded to make ugly models for other vehicles anyway...
