wondering if the i5 and v8 use the same snorkel? i was looking at getting one of the generic ones from ebay or amazon, but they don't say which motor it fits on. or if anyone knows where to get a safari or arb please let me know. thanks in advance!

I just installed an Amazon generic on a 06 I5. Advice is drill the holes a little larger for room to adjust and use 5mm rivnuts instead of rivets on the A pillar. Attaching the rubber adapter is the biggest PITA, really tight fit.

I think the 06/early 07 had a different air box and you had to tweak the snorkel install some to make it work but for 08 plus it connected just fine.

Snorkel kits are designed for 2008+ I5/V8. Only fitment issue is if you have the 06/07 with the earlier air box that uses the round filter. If it's the square filter then it should work. I bought the same exact kit for my 2008 I5 and my 2008 V8.
