I have seen the suziworld snorkel first hand and the quality isÃ‚Â :-X,
looks like it was mad for a different car and only fits non abs GVs,

I want to fit a third Battery in that spot or a air compressor.

Mine had to be as short as possible, because here in Spain packages can't be longer than 1 meter. It is made out of fiberglass, and it's painted black (if it gets scrathed real bad it goes white, but you can easily paint it black again ;)).
