Default Where to get snorkel

Every time the missus is out in the S, in traffic , I get a call saying that she thinks the car is breaking down, kangarooing. I tell her every time not to bother about it.
I just give it more revs
I thought to stop the ear ach I will get a snorkel, looking through posts it seams the best idea is to get a replica snorkel off e-bay, but i can not find any.
suggestions anyone please

I know loads of people have had success with snorkles, but I replaced my MAP recently and it hasn't kangarooed since!

Has anyone got any pointers to find a replica Snorkle that will fit an '04? They all seem to be '00 - '02's, or would these still fit with a bit of cutting?

The 00/01 snorkle has a flat front. The later have an indent for a bar that runs across the front.

You could just cut a slit in it for the bar to slide into. I think it's about 2cm high, and 2cm deep.
