Let's see you find one cheaper. They're all about $300 plus.

I haven't really seen a homebrew that looks good. But that's me.

Uh I never said I could find one cheaper... I know what they run, thanks for your "help". There is a couple homebrews that look decent but none that I'm willing to put on my rig. Thats all..

Now for OP good luck in your choice. Id go with this ebay find if you dont wanna build one.

Then why complaing about the shipping? Even with shipping it's half the price of others.

Yea I dont know where you got complaining from, I was just saying.. Letting it be known for those who read the link and saw blah blah blah-lowprice-lowshipping. I was reading the coding of the link and saw that. And thought maybe they where offering free shipping or something. It was an observation bro. Thanks

I have been dreaming of a home brew snorkle made from PVC rattle canned black.

I have seen most, if not all the threads here. There aren't many options for the average DIYer. So I've been holding off on pulling the trigger.

My final thought has been to do a combo of the cowl snorkel mixed with the front quarter exit with my own spin. Will most likely plumb the intake to the interior of my XJ through the dash, that way no branches or rocks or anything destroy it, along with no odd looking pipe hanging out the side of the truck.
