After reading the long thread posted a couple of years ago I've just ordered a snorkel for my Jimny from snorkels.es. They are now offering free delivery to the UK, and they also accept PayPal now so I managed to get mine for €124.51 which works out at about £104 delivered. Just thought I would share the information for anyone who's interested in getting one in the near future.
I will post some pictures up when I get it fitted. I've been told I should have it by Tuesday so will probably fit it the following weekend.

Yes, they fit very well and isn't that difficult to do.
I did put some TEC 7 to close the fine gap in the front between the snorkel and body.
Like this there is no possibility a twig or small branch can come between it and tear it of.
When driving trough the woods i'm turning the head of the snorkel backwards for the same reason.
Later on i will change the head with a cyclone-head also from Snorkel.ES
Good luck !

Can it be run like that all the time then? I wanted it backwards in case of heavy rain, but I also wanted to rivet the head to stop it being stolen.
The link is www.snorkels.es
You can't click to buy, you have to send them an email at info[at]snorkels.es and they will send you an invoice with the amount and payment methods.

yea its fine alot of us run them backwards, i havnt tried it forwards but ive heard on here they sound much better backwards aswell, open the window and give it some beans over 3000rpm and it sounds like a rally car lol
also alot more tree friendly backwards as the back of the head is nice and curved, the only problem with riveting it on that i can see is if it does get caught it wont come off and could do more damage.
