What is a usual price you would pay for a new set of alzetta euro tail lights for a Dakota. I have found a couple on ebay for around the $50-60 range. Cheaper anywhere else or is this the price range they are in?

I don't care for Altezzas, but I like my Carbon Fiber Euros...yeah, I know...personal preference. Had I never had bodywork done on my bedsides, I wouldn't have had fitment issues... one side fits perfect, the other side (the one that had bodywork done) fits but there's a very slight gap which is only noticeable if you're looking for it. Unfortunately one of my tails wasn't sealed very well and is kinda fogged up so I do need to fix THAT problem. I paid around $50 for my pair on Ebay.

Well these were the APC Euro tails for $50. Here is exactly what they are... APC EURO TAILS FOR THE 1997-2004 DODGE DAKOTA'S
These are junk? Are these the same as alzetta's?

One more thing...if these aren't the best. What do you all recommend to replace my factory tail lights with? Is there anything good out there? I want to be legal.

$50 is actually kind of expensive...but it was the cheapest I could find. When you buy aftermarket tails, notice the description is vague? They don't mention the tails don't include bulbs and everything. ALL you're buying is the actual casing (for lack of a better word)...then you switch over the bulbs/harnesses from your stock tails.
...and yeah, good idea to keep your stock ones around a while.

OK, what is the difference between the APC clear euro lights I am looking at and the Carbon Fiber Euros GB2000 has? Just the color or is it an actual different brand and style?
I knew that it only came with the housing for the tail lights and not the bulbs or harnesses. But it was my understanding that it is simply a "plug it in" and go matter. Pretty easy installation?

Different color, brand, and style... mine aren't even made by APC. Can't remember the name and I no longer have the box around here.
Installation is easy...took me about 5-10 minutes and I am FAR from mechanically inclined. Just make sure when you put the harnesses onto the new housing that the tabs on the harness are lined up with the tabs on the housing. Mine had a notch that was supposed to stop one of the harness from turning too far but it didn't catch and had I gone til it stopped, my harness would have been close to falling out. A few good bumps and it prolly would have.
