Anybody know if they make euros for a 96 dakota. This is the older body style. I have the clear corners on the way but i dont think they make any kinda of aftermarket taillights for it. I have been looking since I got the truck in september of 01. Thanks, Anthony

Ant,
I believe I've seen some clear tails on an old style dak before. A guy I know got in trouble for all clea tails though. You didnt get euro clear corners did ya? I've seen them turn brown after a year.
I also need to show ya my truck (besides the R) :devil

I know a lot of people that have all clear lights. You just gotta get the colored bulbs. What kind of truck do you have? I live right down the road from you so ive prolly seen it pass. My dad dont want me to sell my frame so i dont know what im gonna do now. Later

dang, never saw that pass my house before. You put the 22's on it or you bought it like that. I like my truck but its a 4 cylinder. I want to put a 318 in it so bad. I saw an older model s-10 with a 406 in it yesterday. It wasnt finished yet. Thats gonna be a quick little truck.

if you talk to your uncle krazy kid, ask him where he got the lights if you dont mind. Thanks, Anthony

Naw, I put em on myself. And i dropped the rear 2". another 1"/2" drop will come soon (i got the hangers now, just need front 1" coils). I live in hammond now, I moved outa Loranger about 2 years ago.
A 318 sounds like fun! My frined is mounting a 350 in his newer s-10 (on 18's with a 2/4 drop), but the 350 wont be stock. I imagine a 406 will be killer! I gota 360 in my ram, but It's still slow because my truck's huge weight problem :devil :p and drinks gas like a mo fo. I'll change that someday.

i know you gotta have a system in it. What you got? I wish i could put the 318. Anything would be better than my 2.5. I get real good gas mileage though. I have so much room under my hood. If i ever get another truck, i might just do it for the hell of it one day. Dakotas with 318s are quick. Later

my am/fm/cassette is slammin'! j/j :blah

That's all I've got for now, well and a crappy portable cd player. I gota pay off the wheels and tires (parents bought em for me, and Im paying them back) before I do any other mods (sometime this summer). But I'm looking good for now :devil
I've got big plans though as far as audio/entertainment goes
I wish i had atleast decent gas mileage. I've burnt $45 worth of gas in the last 2 days :eek:

A guy at my school went from the 3.9l v6 and dropped in a 318 in his newer dak (also on 18's with big drop, its a fine lookin truck!)
