Default ebay snorkel

I've been entertaining the idea of adding a snorkel for some time now. I was browsing ebay and found this one. Good deal or no?

CF member in the vendor section has Chinese snorkels for sale for $120 with free shipping. Not sure, but the one in that eBay link might be from China, regardless if it ships from CA. Hard to tell, but in one of the pictures it looks like the Chinese letters I have on mine. I have 0 complaints with mine, and the seller even sent me a heavy duty hose after mine ripped for free.

I may or may not buy from him, I haven't decided yet. The ones on ebay are $10 more but, don't have the Chinese name molded into the plastic.

i have one without the chinese name molded in.
you don't need instructions, there's only one way to mount this.
mine did however come with a template to line it up on the fender and show where to cut and drill.
mine also came with a very heavy expandable hose.

looks great and works just like the over priced arb snorkel. well worth the 120 i spent for it.
