Default eBay/amazon snorkel

Ive been reading about these snorkels that everyone gets off eBay or amazon. Seems like everyone pretty much likes them and has been running them for a while with no real issues. And for the price they can't be beat.

Except All the ones I have found are for 07-11 jks.

Will these fit my 2013 jk?

I cant seem to find any that specifically say 12-14 jk fitment.

Also is there a specific eBay seller or amazon retailer that everyone uses and has had good luck with.

Thanx guys!

yeah it doesn't look like they have ripped off AEV's 2012+ design yet.

And they can if AEV hasn't applied for patents in countries who manufacture them.

I have one of these snorkels - in short it was a waste of money. It does not fit correctly, the brackets are not even close to being the correct shape, etc.

Save up for the real thing.

My humble opinion.
