Magpul makes dedicated rail sections for the MOE carbine length and longer handguards. You will need to mount it at either 10 or 2 oclock in the holes provided. CAA makes/made a QD polymer light mount that folds up/down over about 100 degrees of traverse that will allow you to position a light to best fit your thumb. It works like a flip over magnifier mount. I did one of  my ARs using that set up and it works great.

I use their cantilever MOE rail mount for my WMLx. With the setup pictured (you can't see the rail under the light) I grasp the vfg w/my fingers while my thumb rests either just above the light when I don't need it or on the light switch when I do need it.
HTH...

Cantilever mount comes in the Magpul Illumination kit, I have also seen it sold separately from time to time.

It is sold separately, I bought all of mine off Ebay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Magpul-Cantilever-Rail-MAG437-BLK-/141229111175?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item20e1e93787

+1 on the Magpul Cantilever mount.  I am running this setup on mine, works great.

$7.50 on Amazon.  http://www.amazon.com/MAGPUL-MAG437BLK-Magpul-MAG437-BLK-Cantilever/dp/B00B7NECNK/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1416859623&sr=8-1&keywords=magpul+cantilever+rail

Thanks for the tip on the cantilever mount.  I am picking up a WMLx to replace the TLR-1 on my main AR to free it back up for pistol use.  I used a standard Magpul add-a-rail on my 870's MOE forend for a TLR-1, but wasn't sure what was best for the WML.
