Dakota Digital universal round VHX Series analog gauge kits introduce a new look in a traditional layout. The circular gauge format has been a design staple for generations, allowing flexibility in nearly any type of vehicle--and this distinctive line offers vital information in a variety of configurations … from one single gauge, to a cluster of six! VHX dials provide accurate feedback on at least 20 automotive levels, speeds, and functions; and bringing the vintage dashboard displays into the 21st century are bright LCD message centers, backlit faces, and fully lit needles.
These gauge kits are equally impressive behind the scenes, with solid-state sensors, precision stepper motors, and customizable data readouts. Choose the colors you prefer on the face and digits; everything will be encased in a chromed billet aluminum housing with polished bezel. Dakota Digital gauges have revolutionized the industry--just think what they'll do for your driving experience!

| Included Sensors |

Water Temperature·1/8" NPT, ground isolated sensor with a 10 ft harness.
Oil Pressure·1/8" NPT solid state sensor with a 10 ft harness.
Cable Driven Speed Sensor/ Generator·Replaces GM style speedometer cables with a 10 ft harness. Sensor requires approximately 5" clearance extending between the cable drive output and any obstruction. Part # 130011 (sold separately) allows for relocation of the pulse generator when additional clearance is required. (Tremec and Ford style adaptors available on request.)
Bushings·Each kit comes with 1/8" to 1/4", 3/8" and 1/2" NPT bushings along with bushings for 12mm and 16mm x 1.5 threads.
Calibration
Pushbutton·Dakota Digital instruments are programmed and operated by the push of a button. Simply mount the included pushbuttons supplied with your gauges in a convenient and easily accessible location. These buttons are used to calibrate your speedometer, set the cylinder count and the fuel level gauge. Once properly configured these same buttons are used to access the wealth of information located in the Digital Message Centers.
