Not that I know of. Even the less intrusive AmFib snorkel is going to run right there where you have the mounts. Your other option is to run the ditch lights off the bumper. It works fairly well.
Or you could just get a full on 392 or 5.7 swap and run the hydro guide hood!! :CWL:

If you go with an AEV snorkel it looks like you could fit a bracket in there, but not the one you have. You'd have to be willing to buy a couple to test fit or fabricate your own.

It looks like was molded to specifically allow clearance for a bracket. Maybe a Mopar one, since AEV generally works closely with Jeep

Not the one I use, but this Rugged Ridge snorkel, at least does not occupy the same real estate

Something... something... software.
Yes. You have to mount them reversed. And you will probably get a little extra reflection off the hood. I really like the looks of my AmFib snorkel, but I've got an ARB style one in my garage to install next time I get a big weekend free. It's a pain in the ass if you have to get into the fusebox or mess with the battery. That's the main reason I'm switching to the ARB snorkel (though not looking forward to sawing a notch in the hood...). Also, it has a 4" bore vs 3" of the AmFib, so little more air coming in, for what that's worth.

Take a look at my pod light bracket in the pic:

Thanks for posting this. Was wondering if that style of bracket would work with the AmFib snorkel. OP has the wider bracket that extends to the lower bolts.

Ahh, I just glossed over OP's bracket. Yep. That one will be a problem.

I just added the American Adventure Labs cowl brackets and was hoping it would work with the amfib snorkel. Unfortunately because I went with DD ssc2’s they were a little too long on their heat fins to work with the fender or snorkel. Said good bye to it for now but having freedom of the fuse box again is splendid.
