Enhance Your Land Rover Defender L663 with a Genuine Raised Air Intake
The Genuine Land Rover Raised Air Intake, also known as a snorkel, is a sought-after upgrade for the Defender L663, initially featured as part of the Explorer Pack. Now available separately, this authentic part is designed to elevate both the functionality and rugged aesthetics of your vehicle. While often perceived as a deep-water wading accessory, its primary function is to ensure your engine breathes cleaner, dust-free air, making it particularly beneficial in dry and dusty conditions. Beyond its practical advantages, the snorkel undeniably amplifies the Defender’s off-road-ready appearance.
Upgraded Durability with Stainless Steel Bracket
Early versions of this snorkel kit included a metal bracket, which Land Rover later revised to plastic, possibly aiming to address fitting issues. However, customer feedback indicated that these plastic brackets were prone to breakage in demanding environments, such as car washes or harsh off-road trails. Addressing this concern, we have developed and included a heavy-duty stainless steel bracket with this kit. This robust alternative ensures enhanced durability and peace of mind, allowing you to choose between the provided stainless steel bracket and the original plastic version, keeping the latter as a spare if desired.
Essential Rivnut Tool Included for Seamless Installation
Unlike the standard Land Rover snorkel kit, our offering includes a simple yet essential rivnut tool. This tool is crucial for completing the installation process, ensuring a secure and proper fit of your raised air intake. We understand the importance of a hassle-free installation, and by including this tool, we aim to provide everything you need for a successful upgrade.
Functional and Aesthetic Advantages of a Raised Air Intake
While it’s important to clarify that this raised air intake does not increase your Defender’s official wading depth, its benefits are significant. By positioning the air intake higher, it draws in cleaner air, minimizing dust and debris intake into your engine. This is particularly advantageous in dusty environments, promoting engine longevity and optimal performance. Furthermore, the snorkel adds a distinctively rugged and adventurous look to your Land Rover Defender, enhancing its visual appeal and reinforcing its off-road credentials.
Designed for All Land Rover Defender L663 Models
This genuine raised air intake kit is specifically designed to be compatible with all Land Rover Defender L663 models, including the 90, 110, and 130 variants. You can be confident in a perfect fit and seamless integration with your vehicle, ensuring both performance and aesthetic harmony.
Easy Installation with Step-by-Step Video Guide
For your convenience, we have fitted this snorkel to our own project Defender and created a comprehensive step-by-step fitting video. This visual guide simplifies the installation process, making it accessible for DIY enthusiasts and professional installers alike. The snorkel itself is constructed from durable ABS plastic and comes complete with a fitting kit and detailed instructions, in addition to our supplementary stainless steel bracket and rivnut tool.
