Mmmmm, not sure - I've got a Mantec/DIY hybrid snorkel on mine and I've just made some drawings for a light bar. 

Problem is the mantec top is off centre so it sits in toward the centre of the truck to reduce the overhang and stop it snagging stuff.  This puts it right over the point where the side mounts for the light bar would normally be.  To overcome it on my bar I've had to design a totally differently shaped mount for the passenger side so it goes under the top of the snorkel.  I played with the idea of using the snorkel top as the mount on that side, but changed my mind as I want to change the top anyway - if you face it forward it points up to the sky at about 30 degrees and looks pants, (due to the angle of the top of the snorkel pipe - the top has a complimentary angle in it so they cancel out and it sits flat - but only if its facing backwards) so I'm going to make a new one with a reversed angle in it that can face forward for that 'ram-air' effect so I can squeeze a few more MPGs out of her!

My god, that went off topic a bit.

So, I'd reckon you need to be careful which bar you pick as they may not all fit with a standard Mantec snorkel....
