I have finally chosen my next mod. I want to install a mushroom snorkel head. Do you think this can be done with my setup? Probably not, what parts do I need to make this happen?

Not even 2 minutes and I find out this is no longer available. That's just my luck.

If you have/get the taller snorkel parts for the RR, couldn't you make a plate that mounts to the upwards-facing cowl vent? If so, then you could cut a hole in the middle of said plate to mount a circular snorkel pre-filter or something similar if the mushroom is no longer available.

Thats a great idea!

I'd be ok with something like this one, if I can make it work. 👇

Don't feel too bad they screwed a lot of people over on those snorkels. On the bright side the ones that did get them are happy with them or seem to be anyway.
The guy who designed it apparently did a good job but they completely lost the plot when it come to manufacturing.

This is one of those times where 3D printing might save the day.

👍

Mine is actually a cheap knock off from Amazon and for that reason, experiment. I think I paid like $109
I was tempted to add one to mine, but it's a lease so I didn't feel like having yet one more mod to undo in not too long. If I end up buying out my lease, this will likely be something I add in short order.

But its not RR.

Edit: It comes with this one and the low profile mount.

Maybe cut it off here and make a plate?

Look over the parts some time, you might not even need to do much cutting. I'm pretty sure where you indicated is actually 2 pieces that screw together.

I can't help you with your mod, but my gf's Gladiator came with the high mount AMFIB and I would love to swap it with that low mount cowl if/when you decide to remove it. Rugged Ridge won't sell it by itself as a replacement part.
