hi,
looking around for a snorkel and found these;

Anyone heard of them or tried one? They seem pretty cheap.

I don't know much about them but had an airfow on my Discovery. It did the job and never let any water in and did't seam to leak.
For a bit extra you'll pickup a Safari. I paid $360 for mine from ARB on special.

What other alternatives are there to ARB which aren't too cheap and nasty?

Airflow have been around for years mate, that is not a cheap Chinese copy of a safari that just got here, Go for it.
Alternatively make one out of 4" Stainless tube with some bends, i reckon they look great. I'd have one on my GQ if i did not already have a hole cut in my quarter.

Seem to have seen/heard of these S/S snorks but bloody sure I'm not up to the bending involved.
Are they a stock item from somewhere or do you talk to say an exhaust system fabricator or something?
Got a 3.0l 2008 model after 15 years of TD42 with 2 filters which worked with lots of cleaning but I think one filter on the 'new' one is going to need a snork.

Hey Col.
If you have a late model GU then go one of these mate

will look better than the SS4" i reckon. The SS look great on the GQs but i like the plastic on the late GUs
