I am going ot install two KC Slimlights on KC windshield mounts. Has anyone used some type of gasket beween the mount and the surface. I don't want to risk scratching the surface and causing rust. If so what did you use?

 

use the warping foam paper that comes with the lights

 

Do you think that it will trap moisture? I actually considerd it already.

 

I thought it came with a rubber gasket

 

They do come with some sort of gasket.

 

My KC brackets came with nothing but the metal brackets.

 

The box was factory sealed with the brackets in sealed plastic...no gasket of any type...recommendations? I am considering inner tube material or something similar.

 

That Will Work

 

I took a calendar that is a refrigerator magnet and cut it to the right shape and put it between the brackets and the paint. It was perfect. It is a rubber-like material that has just enough softness to protect the paint, but I also believe it will possibly slightly dampen some vibration, too.

 

i jus got a thin rubber sheet from my work and made my own
