If you’ve been searching for a seamless upgrade for your 1951-52 Chevy car, something beyond almost-there, flat-faced round gauges, the wait is over! With perfectly contoured, machined aluminum housings dripping with chrome and state-of-the-art electronics stuffed inside, your un-modified dash never looked so good! Get yours with blue, red or white LED backlighting and Black or Silver Alloy face styling. Supplied sensors for oil pressure, water temperature and speed allow your choice of drivetrain, from mild to wild, traditional to modern!
Fully lit needles, backlit faces, and highly visible LCD message centers are a few of the things that you can see which set the VHX Series apart from yesterday’s traditional approach to instrumentation. A few of the features which you don’t normally see are the micro-controlled precision stepper motors, solid state sensors for unparalleled accuracy, and user-customizable display feedback, all supported by an unrivaled limited lifetime warranty which has become the standard for Dakota Digital instrumentation systems . Completely engineered and manufactured at our facility in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, the VHX Series has completely revolutionized the instrumentation industry!
