JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

ID:	178853Hey all, I just got done with my snorkel install, along with a few other mods (9.5cti, interior trim, etc.), and figured I would post up a few pics. Enjoy.

The two switches on the left are somewhat safe, as long as you push the boot down a little. The two on the right are not, but those are my momentary-only battery and traction control switches. BTW, OTRATTW now has traction control switch covers. I plan on making a new plate (metal) that will accommodate 7-8 switches, and won't get hit by the boot. Also plan on having a leather boot made to match the seats (already have the Katzkin material, just need to find a good shop).

Thanks. It is actually a Chinese (Ebay) snorkel. Got it for $180 shipped, and they even threw in a pre filter, because of a slight mishap. I made the Rubicon plate to cover the Wrangler JK embossing. It's actually pretty sturdy and I doubt it will fail before the AEV one, since there are no moving parts. I would buy it again.
