Sure thing!Any pics from drivers side front. How big is the gap between A-Piller and snorkel?
Love the design. Couple things I notice :Sure thing!

Great questions!Love the design. Couple things I notice :
- That gap, I wish there was a way to make the A Pillar and "downtube" come together.
- The air intake grill : WIll there be a way to put a filter in there for dust, like a "pre-filter". The snorkel is especially helpful with dust.
- Sometimes I see the intake reversed, pointing backwards. I dont know why people do that, maybe for dust. This looks like it can pivot.
- Some snorkels have a "hat" - that appears to keep rain out....
* ok thats alot. super curious about this project. looks like thoughtful work!!
Hey @Padams7 - from the photos we have seen of the Gobi Roof Rack, there should be enough clearance between the A-pillar and our snorkel for both products to live together. We have not personally test fit this in house, though.Wondering how this will work with the Gobi Roof Rack?
Let me know if you'd like to send me one and I'll test fit for you. From what I see this is the only snorkel that might work with Gobi.Hey @Padams7 - from the photos we have seen of the Gobi Roof Rack, there should be enough clearance between the A-pillar and our snorkel for both products to live together.

Hey @GrumpyVet - thanks for the offer. I will check to see if we have an additional unit to send over. I will send you a DM.Let me know if you'd like to send me one and I'll test fit for you. From what I see this is the only snorkel that might work with Gobi.
Hi @BroncoUT - thank you, we appreciate the feedback. We understand that our current design might not be for everyone.@Mishimoto I appreciate the work you guys are putting into this design. I have to agree with others here, though, that the gap is a deal breaker for me.
I understand the need to minimize bends and flow restrictions, but there has to be a way to get over the mirror mount and hug the A pillar without cutting off the flow. The everglades snorkel accomplishes this. The current gap is not the most appealing and also offers no support to the snorkel when driving through tree branches etc.
For what it's worth, I think you'll lose a significant number of customers by not adjusting your current design!
