Yeah. I'm still undecided on running windshield lights or just running the high snorkel. I needed the Rugged Ridge light mounts and I do have to say they are the nicest of the three I have run. I started with KC, but I didn't like the fact that the wipers hit the light when you lifted the wipers off the windshield (snow/ice removal and general cleaning). I switched to Mopar, but with the snorkel they wouldn't work, so I went with Rugged Ridge. The Rugged Ridge mounts have a nice padding so they'll protect the paint, but again the wipers hit the lights when you try and lift them off.

Thanks got mine done, yeah half a tube is all i used. it didnt make sense to me either i just gooped the crap out of the bolt heads and washers.

Yes, but we are both running the low mount in the pictures. The actual snorkel is not attached
