| Two snorkels for Discovery 4 5.0 V8? |
|
Howdy group,
I was looking at a 5.0 V8 Discovery 4 (LR4 for those in the United States) and see that both sides of the fenders have functional air intake vents.
Does this mean that if a snorkel system is to be fitted to the D4 5.0 V8, this will mean a snorkel on BOTH sides of the vehicle?
It would look very very unusual, I would think. Anyone seen a twin snorkel setup on a D4 5.0?

I think it would definitely need two, but would look very strange and I've never seen one  2006 Discovery 3 TDV6 SE Auto Buckingham Blue

Thought the los was false even on the v8 but might be wrong. Tow bar, roof bars, side steps, tow bar storage unit.

Hmmm....  
 The next American ex-pat that calls it a "truck" is going to find out what 2.7 tons feels like on their foot...
