The new VHX Systems fit directly into the stock instrument pods of a 1958-62 Chevy Corvette without modification, adding a wealth of features to this iconic vehicle.  Chrome triple-plated machined aluminum gauge bezels round out this package.

1958-62 Corvettes have an unmistakable dashboard; chrome rings surrounding aviation-like gauges are the pinnacle of 1960's sports car design. Coming complete with new, machined aluminum instrument bezels and bolting directly into your existing cast housing (not included), the package will breathe new life into your classic Vette!

*Uses factory gauge pods. Chrome triple-plated machined aluminum gauge bezels are included. Housing is NOT included.*

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

Calibration

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.
