I dont think it would be an issue. but i would tape a pipe up on the A pilliar and sit in it maybe drive it around and see if it bothers you.

If you want I can get some pictures from inside my jeep at different angles. This way you can see what it's like. I really don't know if this will help but, it's all I got.

XJ?2010 has a very good idea.

Edit: When I drive, and because I'm so tall, I sit kinda far back. I really can't see my snorkel unless I really try to. Even when turning it's not blocking my view.

safari snorkel on my brother's cherokee (driver's side) DOES NOT infringe upon the view of one single person who has driven it.

we can see about 1/8th of the top part (can't remember what they call the top of the snorkel) through the window, and it's so high that it couldn't get in the way if we wanted it to.
