mfpdm Posted April 9, 2009 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:
Pete M Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 The mounting holes indicate that it's from a Dakota. Better let the seller know before someone gets screwed.
mfpdm Posted April 9, 2009 Author 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.
Pete M Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 Looks, schmooks. :shake: I sent him a message with a link to a photo showing the differences.
mfpdm Posted April 9, 2009 Author Posted April 9, 2009 And here's an 87 Camache tail lights :hmm: I hate when that happens. :doh: I fixed it.
Automan2164 Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 Maybe someone rigged it into a Mj and he pulled it thinking it was O.E. :dunno: Rob L.

MiNi Beast Posted April 10, 2009 Posted April 10, 2009 the response I got... just cause it came off a MJ dosen't mean it is from a MJ. :doh: Dear minibeast1993, Yes, it is definitely a Comanche. I deal exclusively in jeeps and have never had a Dakota nearby. I took it off a Comanche. Thanks

Pete M Posted April 10, 2009 Posted April 10, 2009 I'm just trying to protect my fellow MJ owners. :D
JeepcoMJ Posted April 10, 2009 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
Wildman Posted April 10, 2009 Posted April 10, 2009 Send him a card Pete! :brows: Yea......and one of them can koozies :D But charge him $19.95 shipping and handling :rotf:

Pete M Posted April 10, 2009 Posted April 10, 2009 Oh, it's no secret I can't spell to save my life. But Firefox's spellchecker would have caught that one for ya. :thumbsup: Mozilla for the win!
