Me too. All of the parts minus the pipe were made on a 3d printer. I could really care less about a snorkel but love the engineering, product development of it.
Just saw this Ironman Snorkel on Pete's Tacoma - Expedition Portal over at another site. I think it would look great on a 5th Gen. I like the Mantec also, very clean and conformal.

Really could have used a snorkel here! Someone figure this out already!
Why? Went through something as deep in Michigan last week with no issues.
Has anyone seen this snorkel before?

I pull my camper through deeper water :frisky:
First for any of us I believe, so I fired off an email to them seeking info on stateside dealers.

That looks awesome. I'd like to know a price on one of those. I wonder if you could color match the bottom portion of it and leave only the intake inlet black?

Water is fun to go through only when I see other vehicles go through and I know how deep it is. If ur wrong it is a very expensive mistake. I recently passed a Jeep with a lift and big mud tires being pulled out of a pond it thought it could go through. That is when I learned they have plugs in the floor board to drain out cabin water. My preference will continue to be terrain crawling and not finding out how much water does it take to kill my TE lol.

I honestly do not know what snorkels typically cost, but $613 to get one at my house is too much.......
You can via Paypal to: [email protected]
The quotation as below for your reference.
Snorkel for 5th Generation 4Runner USD315/1set
Freight via DHL express to USA USD298
Total amount USD613
We have a suggestion that we want to offer to you, you can order 2 sets of this item, because the freight is same as 1 set. This package can put 2 sets in, so you can share out the freight cost between 2.
Looking forward to hearing from you soon.

Thanks for posting this info! :thumb3:
Thats looks to be a very neat and clean design. Im curious to see the internal plumbing side of it. Looks like the hole is just beyond the OME intake location?

The price of the snorkel itself is in line with Safari. Would I pay that much for a Chinese knockoff of a Safari snorkel? No. As for the shipping I have no clue what it costs to ship freight from China but that's around what we'd pay to have freight shipped from the US to Canada.

Didn't want to start a new snorkel thread, but saw a picture of the (concept) new Ford Bronco. Notice the factory snorkel? IMO that is how a snorkel should look: New Ford Bronco surfaces in Brazil? | Fox News
