mfpdm Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 So I saw THIS on ebay. Isn't this a Dakota tail light. Comanches only came in red, black trim, and chrome trim to my knowledge. Never a combination of black and chrome. Also the screw holes don't match that of a comanche along with the rounded corners of the lens. So am I wrong here? Here's a pic of a 87 Dakota tail light And here's a set of 87 Comanche tail lights Now I know there are some rumors that there was one year from the Dakota's that would fit the MJ's but I have yet to see proof of that. Regardless of that fact, I think that is a Dakota tail light. :cheers: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 The mounting holes indicate that it's from a Dakota. Better let the seller know before someone gets screwed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfpdm Posted April 9, 2009 Author Share Posted April 9, 2009 Well I tried to let him know and here was his response: Thanks for the information. However, it looks exactly like 1039 to me. And since we deal exclusively in Jeeps and I have never ever, not a once had a Dakota in my yard, it seems it's from the Comanche that I pulled it off of. 1039 is the last four of one of the other comanche tail light auctions.

JeepcoMJ Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 here's what I sent. Your ad about the comanche tail light has attracted alot of attention on comancheclub.com. I've been dealing EXPLICITLY in comanches for 5 years, and have had more than 15 of them pass through hands not to mention what I've gotten parts (especially tail lights) for at the junk yard. that is NOT a comanche tail light. if it was in a comanche, great. that proves to us that a dodge dakota tail light does fit in a comanche bedside with some modifications. We're 100% agreed on comancheclub.com that those tail lights are not off of a comanche. That's alot and considering that we on cc.com specialize in comanches, perhaps you should take that in effect. -Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
