When i installed my AEV snorkel, it came with that exact picture printed on a normal sized 8.5x11" printer paper. So you should be able to just print it as normal to get the right size template.I just cut the template out and taped it to the hood then cut it.

The TIPM or "Totally Integrated Power Module" is the box, just forward of the battery with about 30 fuses in it. I have not sealed the holes in the bottom of mine, I'm not sure if they are there for ventillation or not. I have a spare I am going to play with, and test out the sealed hole thing. I dont ever intend on going that deep, but accidents can and will happen.

I haven't done it yet, I am still deciding how I want to go about it.
I would fight to get a new hood. If they cant get it right, they shouldn't have accepted the job.

Sure, take your time :-)
I am gathering info right now about all the different snorkel systems and came up with the bright idea of building my own. I really don't like any one in particular yet, besides the outrages prices.
I do have a Volant CAI already. Now I am thinking of cutting a hole in the hood (which all kits require anyhoo) right above the top of the air box and run a removable and interchangeable pipe straight up! Short for daily driving, long for water crossings etc.
Well, I also priced a new hood for 400 bucks...just in case I need one LOL
