Open the 6 mounting holes to 16mm using a step drill. Drill the main hole to 86mm using a hole-saw. Deburr all holes to leave a clean edge.
To locate the inner hole, measure back from the headlight support panel 450mm, then down from the bottom edge of the guard flange 60mm. This hole should be located in the center of the round bulge in the side of the engine bay. Drill a 4mm pilot hole, then open the hole out using a 89mm hole saw. Deburr to leave a clean edge.
Paint all holes using a suitable touch up paint.

Use the 4mm pop rivets to fasten bracket to “A” pillar. Position the air ram on the top of the snorkel body and tighten the clamp.
Remove the air cleaner lid, mounting plugs and filter element from the air cleaner assembly. Locate the adaptor casting on the lower left hand side front corner of the air cleaner body and mark the main hole position using a scriber. Remove front three ribs from air cleaner body to obtain flat surface. Use an air hacksaw to cut out the hole. Smear silicone sealant on the sealing surface of the adaptor casting then fasten it to the cleaner body using 4mm pop rivets.
