I thought a major factor for snorkel use was cleaner air. Therefore height would be important.
Agreed, and air at the height of this design is bound to be cleaner than that being drawn beside the tire, in my mind.

True but maybe not as clean as the conventional height.

Very true, but it is a compromise. And they do have the extension, as long as it isn't prolonged highway/road speeds.

3. Our production kits will have the gloss finish that the JK's have with your logo on them. The Epoxy coated cap is an extra that we had laying around for this.
By the way I enjoy the epoxy coated look

Re: River Raider FJ Expedition Snorkel

what does the under hood plumbing look like?

Specifically:
How does this tie into the OEM air box? Or does it come with a replacement?
How does it route through the cowl? Are holes needing to be cut?
