Anyone have pics or tips for installing the 914rubber snorkel in a 4 cylinder? I picked one up in the Black Friday sale and just did a test fit before I snake that onto my wire harness. I know Mark made these a little long so they will work on sixes, but the buckle on my test fit won't do. What have others done to install these in a 4? Cut and glue maybe?

QUOTE(Garland @ Dec 19 2017, 04:50 PM)  So that is a 914rubber snorkel? I looked at your post earlier but assumed that was the genuine Porsche part. Looks great. Mark makes a good point. I didn't think about how much the loom would hold it straight. I figured there must be something I was overlooking. |

Likely you can also make a slight bend to the snorkel/loom to shorten up some length. A big bundle of wire is going to make it a lot more shapeable. |
