Default Safari Snorkle question

I would like to know has anybody installed a Safari Snorkle on an 06' H3? The snorkle application says 08' to 09' (SS1200HF) I've called ARB direct and they couldnt help me much. If it can be done even with minor mods to get it to fit.

Thanks
Mark

I would ask Circuitguy aka Big C, he is a forum sponsor here, an actual Hummer owner selling the stuff...

he has it listed as 2006-2010 on his website....

You have to mod the stock intake snorkle to make it work for an 06. I had it on my last one, It wasn't to bad of a job.

What gets more cool points the ARB bumper or Safari snorkel? I could use all the cool points I can get! I hope PIAA lights get me some points also because I've ordered them too!

I think the ARB bumper scored huge cool points on that yellow.... I couldn't stop smiling when I saw it...

I think the snorkle attracts more negative attention from haters... but you already know that... they are functional if you spend some time sealing things correctly... but since nothing on your rig is half-***... you already know the value of doing a job correctly...

2wheeledmonster I did think of and H1 snorkel but I couldnt figure out a way to make it fit. I think a snorkel coming up from the corner of the hood would look nice but it would also make a blind spot while driving too. I did look around to see if anybody has done it and see what I was up against.
