There isn't one available yet. It's still being designed. If you look around you can see that some people retrofitted another snorkel kit to fit in their 4Runner.
 
I did hear Safari was finally making a unit for the 4th Gen 4Runners, but I haven't heard any news on it in a while.

Most people are using Tacoma or Prado units if I remember right.
 
Can you tell me, which snorkel kits they use exactly?
I've read about land cruiser kits which you need to heat and bend slightly to make it line up I guess, and another had an FJ 80 snorkel. I haven't read up on it much as I don't need it yet and I'm waiting until after the one made for our trucks comes out.

Thank you very much! :)
 
Safari Snorkel SS171HP

I just finished mine. I used the Safari Snorkel SS171HP intended for an '05-15 Tacoma. I preferred the chunkier look and the improved airflow of the ARMAX design. I cut the flare to fit around the snorkel and used stick-on rubber gasketing between snorkel and body to hide the small gap (3/16"). I did use a heat gun to form the snorkel to the body.

Looks good!

I used the $70 knockoff on amazon for an 80 series LC. Details are at the end of my 4th gen build thread.

Nice, yours looks nice and tight to the body and your snorkel intake is nice & straight! I noticed some had to change the angle of the pipe to get the snorkel to fit the Pillar which causes the snorkel intake to be crooked. That was the major reason that I wanted to try the SS171HP, instead.

My fender was mint as well. And even though, I knew the snorkel would cover up the holes, I was still seriously sick to my stomach drilling two 4.5" holes and a bunch smaller smaller holes.

Thanks. It fits pretty good but I did have to heat and re-shape it to get it there. I've drilled, cut, welded other vehicles and I didn't really think twice about it but I really had to think it over before drilling in this fender. I guess you could say I'm a little attached to this 4runner, lol.
