Kc are great lights but when it comes to their smaller lights tho the price gets higher. I have 4 kc daylighters they are big and talk about expensive 200 for 4. I think the only ones that will fit the dak nicely is the slimline ones and its like 150-200 for 2 of them. I want a pair of hid kc's too bad they are 1,100.00

Saw a ram with the grille cut out for them and imo it was uglier than ****. You could always do hids, look just as cool and really do help with night driving. I've done quite of bit of offroading actually 2 night rides in the last month and they have been so awesome. Westin bull bar is another option also.

Oh yeah forgot you got a kit. Its hard to put anything on dak bumpers since they are small.

You could make 2 "S" shaped brackets to mount them to. Pretty easy to do and that will put the lights far enough out to allow clearence for your hood. I have a set of 100 watt KC daylighters that I would sell cheap if your interested.
