Finally, a good-looking solution for Chevy G-Bodies! A simple installation into the stock instrument housing, Dakota Digital squeezes six analog gauge readouts plus two digital LCD message centers into Monte Carlo-style clusters. Upgrade your El Camino, Malibu, or Monte Carlo’s individual-gauge cluster! Will not fit sweep-style speedometer dashes.

Fully lit needles, backlit faces, and three 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 their facility in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, the VHX Series has completely revolutionized the instrumentation industry!

*The VHX-78C-MC fits into a stock dash bezel (not included).
