Check out the snorkel for the VIN WDB461331 1X 1637 seems to be quite cheap by MB standards

part # A4615000255 snorkel
and A4615060134 grill

They were around 32 and 13 euros respectively in Germany a while back. Try giving a MB parts department a call and check the cost.

The online parts lookup site no longer works for “G” parts so you can’t look it up online.

Re: snorkel Q ??

just ordered 'em from main steeler!! snorkel was 27.03 and grill 11.58 ( + vat) not worth getting me hands dirty at that price!!! just need to make up connection to air box then! 'gates' hoses here we come - 1 long length of flexi/corrugated same ID as snorkel bottom and then cut off air box trumpet at same diameter!
