This Dakota Digital HDX gauge kit is a drop-in replacement for 1971-76 Chevy Impala and Caprice, required sending units are included for a simple installation. When ordering, choose from black or silver gauge background; the illumination colors are user-adjustable to match any paint scheme. A large TFT message center allows full customization of auxiliary readings, keeping the driver in tune.
Available with your choice of black or silver alloy gauge-face styling, each HDX system allows the user to select independent illumination colors for the gauge readings and needles, as well as the message centers. Calibration and personal settings are manipulated with the built-in, capacitive-touch buttons, or the available Bluetooth app for Apple and Android devices. Each needle hub is black nickel plated spun-aluminum to match the buttons.
Calibration and personal settings can be manipulated with the lighted, capacitive-touch buttons, or the available Bluetooth app for Apple and Android devices. With the instrument system dialed in, including calibration of the speedometer and fuel gauge, the system can calculate your remaining fuel range, expressed in miles to empty. This kit is supplied with an optional buzzer for feedback each time a button is pressed. Also, the buzzer can emit a warning tone for each reading at a user-defined set point to coincide with the dead-faced, red warning lights incorporated into the gauge faces.
Vehicle integration through a central control box has become a standard for Dakota Digital, and the advantages are substantial. This greatly simplifies installation; two power (constant and switched) and one ground connection get things up and running, while vehicle-harness sourced signals and sensor inputs run cleanly to their respective terminal. Supplied, solid state sending units with weather-tight harnesses ensure years of trouble-free operation. This control box allows for easier service, a clean-looking finished product, and an abundance of technology packed into a vintage dashboard.
