I would prefer to use the fender mount version of the Mantec snorkel but I am unsure if it will fit a RHD early 90 with a Defender 200tdi.

Physically I know it will attach to the fender and the windscreen but will I be able to route the hose through the left side vent or will the heater interfere?

Unfortunately I can not just go look at it since the 90 is currently thousands of miles away :)

Follow-up Post:

Just noticed that they also offer one that mounts on the RH side, would that be the better option?

Is there anything on the RH side that would cause an issue?

I have a petty stock looking engine bay and have to say you could probably route it from the right hand side but not the left. But it will require some tubing to go across the engine bay and have to remount the air filter box and so one.

Allot of trouble fornothing if you ask me. I wouldjust plug it in the side of the left wing and leave the room in the right of the engine bay for other puposses like a Webasto/Espar or OBA ...
