Grand Vitara / XL7 Snorkel
It fits every Grand Vitara made between 1998 and 2005. That means the two-door, four-door and the XL7 models and those with ABS.
Rarely, if ever, available in Australia before now, the snorkel is made from a sturdy fibreglass material and is designed specifically to fit the unique shape of the Grand Vitara like no other snorkel on the market.
Not only is it tough - and durable - it looks great as well. This snorkel won't make your ride look like a truck (or a Hilux!) but instead adds to the overall aesthetics of an already well designed car.
Simple to fit with detailed step by step instructions included, those with the confidence to drill the hole could manage in an afternoon. If drilling isn't for you - your local 4WD fitter should be able to do the job in about 2 hours - just ask them for a quote.
So why would you even want a snorkel? Snorkels were initially designed for outback travel to prevent the thick dust from clogging your air-box and preventing the airflow your engine needs to breath and operate efficiently. They are also more commonly known for allowing your vehicle to cross creeks and rivers without the unwanted intake of water that can easily drown an engine and leave you stranded. In daily driving, the snorkel looks good! It allows cool fresh air into the engine helping it to perform more efficiently around town. Under normal driving conditions this may prolong the life of your air filter and lead to improved torque.
