Dakota Digital 1953 - 1954 Chevy Car VHX Instruments - VHX-53C



1953 -1954 Chevy Car VHX Instruments

The new VHX Systems fit directly into the stock instrument bezel of a 1953-54 Chevy Car.

Not wanting to compromise the distinctive dash of the 1953-54 Chevy Car, VHX-53C attaches to the backside of a stock or reproduction bezel (not included) for a finished look.

Due to the unique dash arrangement in this car, steel within the stock dash will need to be trimmed to allow for a larger instrument cluster.

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 the Dakota Digital facility in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, the VHX Series has completely revolutionized the instrumentation industry!

Bezel is NOT included, fits in stock bezel.
