I believe the A pillar is removed by opening the bonnet and then just pulling it off, it also says that the clips must be renewned Question
to remove the wheel arch liner you need to remove the mudflap, then the 4 retainers holding the wheel arch moulding, remove the 2 screws then pull off unclipping the 10 clips. once the fender moulding is removed you then remove a further 2 screws and 6 retainers and pull out the wheel arch liner
air intake grille is lift up and pull out. the rest I think you should be able to look for the approriate screws etc unless someone else bother to inform you as I dont know.

i fitted a safari snorkle to mine on sunday
the a pillar mould pulls straight off, the same goes for the air intake grille
to remove the wheel arch you have to take the grille off (push the clips down), then remove the left headlight (pull up the black metal tags on either side of the head light, pull the head light forward and unclip the wiring). there is a screw that runs from behind the head light into the front of the wheel arch and you cant get at it with the head light in place, then pull the wheel arch off after you have removed the clips and screws underneath and remove the inner guard lining
then follow the fitting instructions
you can give me a call me if you need any help
regards

Thanks guys - Jamo, Norto, TravisTX, Sijui, & Catweasel for the info.
Driving down to Perth tonight to for a few days R&R and will be picking the snorkel up when I'm down there. Should have it fitted in a couple of weeks time and will let you know how I go on. Thanks again
