Another snorkel installed...

...but this one in Puerto Rico.

I picked it up last friday from the store.

Thanks to Dragon who was my advisor all the way. Everything was very easy but only one part that made me mad: The PITA fender liner; I took off like 127 clips and bolts from it and when I thought I finished removing everything, there were clips behind the bolts.

I could work without removing everything off. Thats the fender liner and the fender trim together.






I'm gonna keep that as a souvenir or use it as a bling bling to match my FJ.... What do you think?



Those holes were the easiest part of all the procedure. Obviously the template has to be perfect aligned.



Some touch up paint to cover the bare metal edges to prevent rust.


Applying blue loctite. Went to Home Depot and no one knew what was that...shame on them. Went to Pep Boys and there they were in different colors.


I removed the TRD CAI and you can see the Snorkel rubber tube.


I took the idea from Dragon by applying black silicone caulk to the gap between the rubber tube and the TRD CAI hole. I also used foam weather strip to pre-tight the area prior to apply the silicone.


Taaa-Daaa !!!!! And here is my snorkel. Now lets see how people react on the streets. Hahahahah !!!


Inside the cabin you don't see the snorkel so it wont be a problem for view blocking. This is one of the best things that came for the FJ, with less of 2 years on the market.

Once again, Thanks to Dragon for all the help he gave me.
