I went with the Safari which cuts into the quarter panel. I'm having it professionally installed on Tuesday as I don't feel comfortable cutting into the panel myself. Also, whichever way you go, remember to get the other intakes raised as well.

I love my AEV snorkel and cutting the hood is not that hard to do. The entire install took less than 2 hours and looks like it was installed by a professional. Don't let cutting the hood discourage you from getting a snorkel.

Dirtman do you have a link to that thread or what's the name of it? I'm interested.
