I just installed these new parts on my '16. I am actually fairly impressed with them. The block off plate has a foam gasket on it and unlike the original cover, the new one has a foam gasket that bears against the rib on the platform that it clips into. Not as good as a true snorkle, but one heck of an improvement over the original design.

This is the best I can do... snorkels are illegal in Maine and the game wardens will check when they stop you.

That's good to know. I just ordered the upgraded parts today!

Radiator hose is probably the easiest that I've seen. Which is why I went with that

View attachment 47534


What size hose clamp is that?

And the more that I look at it, is anything really being achieved by doing it that way???

Doesn't seem to me it would do a whole lot of good depending on where the water goes when you happen to splash through it or plop in it and throw it up in that area?

I mean maybe, but only if because some kind of way, the water is being specifically channeled to the intake area because of the way it's all designed under there, but all in all it doesn't seem like its accomplishing too much??

It's sucking from the back rather then front so most splash will push by. Won't help swamping but will probably help the tire splash some.

Thinking I missed something, I went back through this whole thread and I haven't seen any kind of a part number or an order number for the entire retrofit kit?

The first couple of posts show separate part numbers but isn't there something like:
"2016 Honda Air Intake Retro Fit Kit?"

Or in CP's case
"2016 Honda Stuck It Up CP's Intake" kit?

Thank ya Bubba! Wondering now if some company is going to come along and clone it and start selling it like that?

If anybody read the pre-edited post it's because I looked at it and realized how difficult it would be for somebody to clone it on their own :)
