From what I remember the KC mounting bracket brings them in enough to clear by placing them more in the line of sight of the window. I used the smittybilt bracket and shortened my antenna, I like having the lights out more because even with that the glare at night was pretty bad and moving them more over the hood makes it worse.

That's why I sold mine off and upgraded the lighting on the bumper level, makes it a lot nicer to use at night

X3 on the Smitty's, Quadartec sells them for $25 and they're the exact same as Mopar without the cost. They do come with the antenna bracket but I opted not to use it because I shortened the antenna.
