1993 Dodge Dakota Sport Side lights
I have a 1993 5.2 V8 2WD Dodge Dakota Sport extended cab and I'm trying to find new housings for the side lights as the ones I have are rusted out but I'm having a very difficult job finding them.
These are the lights I'm referring to and I'd be very grateful if anyone knows where you can get these. FYI I'm in Canada but I'm happy to buy from the States:

Just wanted to report back.
The original fog light housing from the truck were made by Bosch with the part number Bosch 1305354041. These had a small indent in the glass at the top and a metal tab spot welded to the bottom. I don't think these are made any more. I couldn't find any.
There's a part that is very similar to this without the indent and the tab at the bottom: Bosch 1305354933. Identical in every other way. I cut the indent in the glass with a dremel tool using a glass cutting tip and used Q-Bond to add the metal tab on the under side. Fits perfectly.

If you switch to complete Bosch lamps then you'll have to modify the bumper fascia to make them fit properly, and there's also the issue of whether you can get them to attach to the bumper.
I've researched this extensively since I wanted to find a front bumper with this option. I've got the fascia and a pair of crusty original fog light housings and lots of Bosch spare parts, some day I will take the time to make it work.
