Nice thread. Wondering what you guys did to relocate the power antenna, or did you go another route?

It's sitting in a box of parts in my closet. =)

I did an antenna that stuck to the windshield and I grounded it to the A pillar grab handle screw. It was just OK. I had a Jensen rubber antenna that I was going to mount next to the snorkel but never got to it before getting rid of my 80. Why not drill another hole when you have already cut a funny hole in the fender.

Has anyone been able to retain the antennae when installing the OEM snorkel? Pics ?

I wasn't expecting there to be this gap between the snorkel and the A-pillar. I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be like that. I figure this way it's easy to clean in between and crap won't get stuck there.

I also got mine from whosthecoolguy.

I'm looking at an 80 series that has this snorkel on it, holy s*** this is the ugliest snorkel I've ever seen. Yes, raising a thread from the dead, but holy s*** do you guys drive your 80s with this snorkel around when you're not headed to the trail? Seems the installation creates swiss-cheese in the fender too. Gross.

I think I'll end up passing on this 80, it's perfect except for this asshat snorkel installed on an otherwise stock, unmolested rig.

You can un ugly it by swapping out the radome topper for a 70 series cyclone hat…that’s what I did
