Or just the whole set up....lol

Hopefully someone with an 07 Patrol can help you out mate.

FWIW anyway, below are photos of my stock GQ airbox with the 4" snorkel line and a photo of the GU filter set up with the reducer going to the 4" snorkel with dual battery tray. Very tight fit but can be done.

No issue with the inlet, just the GU filter is a tight fit in the corner with the dual battery tray.

Mate, it doesn't interfear with any thing. Here's a couple of general shots. Let me know if you want a more specific one.

It's not hard to do yourself - I did mine. The Safari for the CRDs has one large hole in the guard which is so big you can cut out with good tinsnips or a nibbler. Top 1/3 of the hole has tar paper stuck on the inside of the guard which was the worst bit to do as it became too thick for the nibbler.

Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr so this would pretty much be the same for me GU RD28, i've never paid attention to them on cars and didnt realise they ran under the gaurd. I was wondering the same thing myself.

Cheers...
