Default DII with TJM or Terrafirma/Southdown snorkel pics?

Anyone have pics of a southdown black steel snorkel on thier d2?

Lucky8 Llc. - Take the road less traveled...

I'm considering that to the plastic one here:

TJM Snorkel Kit Airtec Land Rover Discovery 2 011SAT0539T

Simple because I cant find ANY picture of that, even OFF the vehicle and they never respond to my emails. price is right, but common, that picture is a 5 minute 3d model... who knows what it really is.

I just cannot get over the price of these! Most are all plastic and the cost to make them is so inexpensive.

I prefer the look of the SouthDown. More of a pain to install, but to me a much cleaner look and worth it. Plus it is steel. I have seen many people make their own for under $100. Just depends on what look you want.

Mantec is deff the coolest. Just cant justify $450 on a black pipe. But I want one someday. The cooler part is the clear glass pre cleaner priszm you can get for the top. Now that says African safari anywhere in the lower 48 states.

That was the link I was looking for!!
That would def be a need for the sand dunes.
The DI Mantec is $100 cheaper than the DII version, I have no idea why.
