Default Wingtip to Runway light protector Concepts

Our club has taken out a few lights (vertical lights on short post) with the trainer 2-33, I always thought a longer wing wheel rod/bracket would have kept the wing above the lights, but not a solution for high performance.

Generally it is much easier to keep the fuselage from hitting light than the wings, so setting the wing tip above the lights would work.
