Default Tail light covers

Does anyone know if any companies make tail light covers for this generation of Rams? Or, if not, maybe something that could be modified to fit them? Or those fancy Euro lights maybe? Anything different then stock would be more then I have found.

Nope.

This generation Ram was mostly purchased by government agencies and farmers. The sales were what, 1/4 at best of the F-series and Chev/GMC offerings. There just isn't enough of a market.

But since alot of these trucks are still running and running good you think they would open a market up for accesories again?

Why? There's so much more money to be made by making 94+ parts or Ford/Chevy parts. Sure, there are a bunch of old Rams still running, but most of them aren't in the hands of the show car crowd. I've seen a couple of 1st gen Rams driving down the road doing what they do best even after being obviously rolled over. They're still farm trucks, mud boggers, and government trucks. I don't have access to the production numbers, but they were dismal. There just aren't enough 1st gens on the street owned by people interested in modifying them to warrant it.
