Changing Snorkel Fitment

[defect]

Hi,
I have previously installed a stainless snorkel, and now want dual snorkels. The brand that I bought does not make one for the passenger side. I am mainly worried about the holes in the pillar and not sure what to do about them as the new brand of snorkel does not line up with them.

Thank you

How long is a piece of string? That is, how much do you want to spend? Take it to a panel beater and have them weld the holes closed, they'll then polish and paint to make it look like nothing was ever there.

Thats what i was thinking, just was unsure if it would effect the structure or anything of it. Cheers

Panel Beaters in Australia are qualified to ensure the work they do doesn't adversely affect the structure of the vehicle.

I'm still wondering why you would want dual snorkels on a 20 year old gen 3-6 hilux unless you have fitted a ls v8 motor
And yes it will affect the structure if you start drilling into the A-pillar

Same thoughts here, but each to their own. If I had the coin (couple of Lotto wins) I'd have my 2004 lux restored, put in a small V8, hardened seats & valves for gas and then tuned for H2 use. Newer style dash fitout with the computer screen thing fitted.
I guess we all have dreams.
