Default Different type of lighting question

Ok so i've been reading through a lot of threads and feel like I mostly have the answer I need. I'm going to be mounting a pair of driving lights to my windshield. I've read enough to know that not every bracket/light combo causes glare off the hood.

What i'm looking for is input from people on here who have driving lights on the windshield with NO glare. Would you all be so kind as to tell me what bracket you're using, and what lights. That way I have some idea of what to steer clear of.

I can't help you out specifically, but I understand your concern. My lights were a long drawn out decision for me. Not many things can help the hood glare when you mount lights on the windshield. What I did was configure the set up to my appeal and tweak it slightly.

I went with PIAA 520 SMR's and mounted them on the windshield with KC highlights brackets. I didn't like the way the PIAAs mounts looked and fit(low and slightly off to the side). I had to bend/adjust the KC's alil, but the end result was great. I still get glare, but it's bearable.
