Question Snorkel help!

I've only got a couple hours to put some kind of snorkel in my rig and need some ideas. I get home from work Wednesday late afternoon and have to leave Thursday morning for a 6500 mile road trip!

I don't have time for ordering, cutting holes in body etc. I've gotta get the intake out of the header panel. I am thinking something out of the back side of the air box piped up around the master cylinder. Anyone done something like this? got a suggested parts list? pictures?

you could do this in a couple of hours but you will need the snorkel head. Unless you rig up a extendo gutter thing like they have at lowes or home depot.
