Anybody know where i can get some aftermarket tail lights with proper amber turn signals for my 99 Dakota?? thanks

 

start by checking eBay and summitracing.com and stylintrucks.com

Other than that just google it and see what comes up.

Cheers.

 

I believe you only need amber turn signals on the front?
Back can be amber or red. As they are red on stock Dakotas.

 

Yeah, the red signals arent ilegal, i just dont like them, i get annoyed whenever im driving behind someone with them, because when they are braking and signalling at the same time, and they tap the brakes, i can't tell which way they are signalling, so i don't want to be hypocritical and change mine

 

You are going to have to wire in new ones. Since the brake/turn filament is the same, you'll have to wire in a third bulb (One reverse, One tail/Brake, one turn). It's not going to be as easy as it seems.

 

I agree, you can always take a look in ebay for cheap price.

 

agreed. You'd have to run a new power line from under the dash to the back of the bed.

 

I've looked for these too,I feel the same way,don't like the red and think they should all be amber turn sig's in the rear...

I also don't like the clear lenses/colored bulb thing, very hard to see in bright daylight,
I ride a motorcycle and it really is dangerous sometimes...


I don't think I found any assemblies where they're separated,I was goin to rewire mine,but use the reverse light section of the housing for the turn sig. w/amber bulbs and relocate/add reverse lights somwhere else...

 

go to mexico...

mexican daks have amber turn signals stock

 

I personally don't think you'll have much luck. Since Dakotas are built in the USA, I don't think you'll find any AMBER/RED tail-lights for it. If you notice... when you're seeing these vehicles with amber/red tail-lights, they're probably japanese/foreign.

And don't forget. If you do have any luck, remember your flasher might be affected by your change too.

Good luck.
