Advice if Any For A Yeti Snorkel

[SeanPaulHTFC77]

Hi,

 

I am just wondering is it possible to get a snorkel for my yeti please.

 

I understand that I might need to get a universal one or make one to fit from different snorkel models, but I just wondered is it possible to fit one please.

 

Thank you and all replies will be welcomed.

I've never seen one but I suppose anything's possible.

 

IIRC the Yeti has a pretty low wading depth and the air intake is above the wading depth so probably wouldn't be of any use apart from cosmetically.

Remember, the Yeti is based on a Golf platform and you wouldn't see a Golf with a snorkel or wading :D

Recent thread asking the same question:

And the obvious question; why do you think you need one?

[SeanPaulHTFC77]

To Answer some of the questions, I would like one for the look, and to make the yeti more aggressive/off road look, I am looking at getting the front bar too.

 

And yes before you say get a landy, I dont like them, I like skoda and I love my yeti.

You will find universal snorkels online that you could make fit if you just want to attach and bring through the wing.

google

raised air intake / snorkel

Maybe check out ones for a Suzuki

In that case anything could be used to be a dummy one. As you have seen there are no proper ones available.

 

You will need to fit 16" wheels if you want to fit some more aggressive tyres as they are none suitable in 17".

 

Be very wary about front protection bars and check with your insurance company that they will allow you to fit one, Many won't as unless they are made of a deformable structure they are illegal. I would also ask about the "fake" snorkel and the change in wheels and tyres..

So you want one for the look rather than for any practical reasons? Oh dear. Do you dye your hair as well? I mean, just for the look?

Please don't fit a front bar.

 

I have a very good friend who is confined to a wheelchair for the rest of her life due to one of those obnoxious devices.

 

They have been made illegal for a reason.

 

Someone's quality of life is much more important than protecting a bit of plastic and metal. So please think twice before fitting such a selfish and antisocial device.

And respect the wading depth, they float also.

Is somebody having a giraffe?

[Ootohere]

Giraffes are probably the most unlikely to ever need a snorkel if going wading.
