Default tail lights?

I have noticed that the lights on the 1st gens look the same as some other dodge trucks like some of the ram models. Are they same and will they work on the dakota? If anyone knows this might be good for more options and better prices.

According to part numbers it is not the same. They do look the same. The difference may be in the mounting hole locations. You can give www.ebay.com check out the rams and Ram chargers have different tails then the Dakotas.

Hmm. I guess I'm just going to have to check at a junkyard sometime. Whenever I find out I'll let everyone know
