Here is a video I put together after seeing that there was not much out there for installing a snorkel on a H3
[video=youtube_share;DPfjysnxKnI]https://youtu.be/DPfjysnxKnI[/video]

I am open to suggestions on videos to make in the future & I would appreciate if any of you guys like/share/follow!

Cheers!

One of the best how to videos I've seen in awhile. Including the jams. A snorkel is dedinately on my list future mods. Watching you do your install will make mine go so much smoother. Much appreciated.

Thanks for the nice words, I learned a lot from making this video and will try and implement those lessons learned when making the next ones

Looks like your kit used aluminum rivets? There's no way your grip is that strong to be able to pop the rivets using your fingertips if they were stainless steel 3/16" rivets like mine were...

Thanks for making it look so easy (after I had to spend 10 hours doing mine).

Pop the rivets with my finger tips? I used a rivet gun... I know forsure all of the other hardware was SS but I honestly didn't take a close look at the rivets so they could be aluminum

I know you used a rivet gun, but it didn't look like you had to try very hard to set them. I had to really crush the handles on my rivet gun and it barely started pulling the rivet in before the head blew apart on the rivet gun.

Oh I see what you mean... Yeah going from memory they were quite soft and easy so they were prob aluminum

I don't think aluminum rivets are soft, building aluminum cap for my M1102 and I am putting hundreds of rivets in now they are f.. hard to pull. Maybe I need to go to gym

Well the bag of ice/ankle situation is what gave me enough time to edit the video... still mad at myself for that
