Going to go pods on the 34, was looking at pod shields but can't find anything that allows usage of the stock snorkel.

Has anyone found/had one made?

Alternatively, was looking at buying this and modifying it. How had would it be for me to cut a neat hole in that? I'd then stick a small rubber flange on the whole for the snorkel to sit on.

I did find this, but that's a GT-T and the opening looks kinda ugly.

No provision for snorkel. 

I'm still trying to talk to this guy.

But he just doesn't answer email/phone. 

Has said he'd call a few times and hasn't. 

 

I get you, and considered doing the same for that FRP enclosure, but the challenge is me cutting a neat hole in and then have the snorkel sit nicely in/on it and be a relatively close fit. 

The snorkel attaches to the airbox at an angle though, and not at 90deg to the box. 

Not sure how that would sit given relative heights between radiator support and top of enclosure. 

Hence wanting an off the shelf product or a proven way to mod one if anyone had ever found one. 

I realise I can throw $500 at my fabricator and he'll make it happen, but if there's a way to do it for a few hundred less, I'm open to it.

    • Hey all, I'm sorry if this has been discussed before.  I have a 2008 Japanese import V36 coupe with nav but without Bose. I bought one of those AliExpress android screens, which for the most part works really well.  The only thing that doesn't work is the air con controls (well sort of) and the factory reverse camera.  The AC can be controlled fine but it doesn't report the change in temp and mode to the screen, and the volume knob/other audio controls from the panel don't register on the learning app.  I am pretty certain that the problem is the difference in the head unit between base model (Nav but no Bose) 2007-2009 coupes and anything after 2009.  Mine is the one with the blue connector all the way to the right as seen in this forum post:  The reason I think this is there is one wire left over that doesn't fit anywhere on this head unit, or in the factory screen which also uses different connectors to more recent versions.  I've seen the upgrade from OWC, and have sent the guy a message on eBay but no response yet.  I also don't particularly need the whole kit, just *maybe* an adapter for this one cable.  Did anyone else here have the same problem, or have any insight about what I can do to get this working?  I have been in contact with the seller but all they seem to be able to do is ask for more pictures and videos. Minor edit to add:  I have been researching and found a screen on Aliexpress that actually specifies my head unit in the listing, so these things do exist.  I will contact the seller to see if the wiring adapters are interchangeable with other screens.   Thanks in advance!
