    Can I ask why? I mean, sure, it's theoretically possible, but why?

    You could make one out of some stainless. Just take a holesaw to your guard and go from there.

    It's not a town ute, 80% is on gravel out bush. The air has to be cleaner up top than behind the headlight. just seing if it has been done before.

    It may be very well more practical, and cheaper, just to change the air filter more often.

    Exactly go buy yourself a K&N filter and just give it a clean when it needs it.

    Surely some of the BNS boys have done the snorkel thing. They'd be the only ones weird enough to do it to a commo
