Thats fine, if you look at my picture from the kidd4cars thread it didn't initially have the groves cut on the top. I added that afterwards to make it easier to clip in.

Does the pipe that goes into fender need to go through BOTH holes or just the first one?

It probably doesn't have to go though both, but my original snorkel did, so I made sure my new one did too.

Yea, Gotts says atleast 2 inches so that's what I'll try to do. Ugh! Getting the pipe right is a pain. Giving up for the day. Get back at it tomorrow.

I think the reasoning is because you can suck up leaves if it only makes it past the first hole.

Done! I think . Probably just jinxed myself

. But pipe fits through both holes pretty dang snug(had to use WD40 to get it back out after test fit lol ). Cleaned it up and got it all smooth. Hit it with a quick coat of black paint just incase any of the pipe ends up showing. Let that dry for a while and its on to reassembly.

I've had the battery disconnected this entire time. Is that right? Reconnect after I get it all put back together? Any special steps to do so the comp "relearns" or whatever?

You didn't need to unhook it for this but it doesn't really matter. Post some pics so we can see when your done.

Will do.

Also cleaned my K&N filter and it's supposed to dry for a day. But thats under normal temps I think. It's in the hundreds here so it shouldn't take but a couple hours.

Wow, we have nearly the same exact setup.
You dont have a bunch of offroad lights on the outside and neon/LED on the inside aswell do you?

I love my K&N because I can clean it every time it turns black. I should probably think about getting one of those prefilter covers they make for CAIs with how gross it gets. Makes me wonder why my stock filter never seemed to get nearly as dirty.
