Default new taillights for my 08 megacab

I am looking for new taillights for my 08 megacab but i'm not having any luck. I wouldn't think that dodge would make different taillights for the megacab but none of the aftermarket guys say that they will work. One of the sites actually state that their lights do not work on megacab. Does anyone know for a fact that the mega is different and know where i can find some?

I wouldn't see why the taillights arn't interchangeable with the other trucks. Pretty sure the rear end is the same on the trucks, I know of some mega cabs here in town with aftermarket Recon's I think

I've never heard that before at all, I'm almost positive Mega Cabs use the same wiring and everything as a normal Quad Cab. You should get these lights, I recently got them. They're expensive but by far the coolest looking tail lights for the RAM's.

Same lights as the whole third gen 1500,2500 and 3500 truck line. Go nuts.

07-08 lights are different than the 02-06. But all 07-08 should interchange. Megacab's use the same 2 bulb housing. One bulb for the red, one for the back-up.
02-06 used dual red bulbs and one back-up bulb. Although they will bolt up un either truck, the wiring is different in the 02-06 vs 07-08.
