Need help from a 200 owner

[ckkone]

Hi,

I sold my 200 series and went back to a Tundra, I need a hand from a 200 owner. I'm going to try and fit a 200 series TJM snorkel to my Tundra but I need to know the angle of the a-pillar and windscreen height on the 200 series. Any help would be great, thanks.

What is the baseline angle to measure from? I have a wixey angle finder that I can use, but where do you want it zeroed? I don't think the ground is a good level, since every vehicle has a different amount of rake. And for the windscreen height, what points do you want measurements taken from?

I agree, any reading needs to be indexed to allow for vehicle rake and terrain. Perhaps measure the angle of window sill then measure A pillar and interpolate?

How about the reverse angle to the 'horizontal' at the base of the passenger (right) side window? I also saw someone install a Tundra snorkel on an LC in a youtube video . . . with no template. They made it work.

29-1/4" from plastic trim to top of glass.

37.8 degrees from horizontal (horizontal zeroed at the window bottom where the rubber meets the metal).

Perfect, that should work just fine and give me ruff idea if its even close to the same on a Tundra.
