Dakota Digital 1969 Chevy Chevelle/ El Camino / Malibu VHX Instruments with Analog Clock Gauge - VHX-69C-CVA
The new VHX Systems fit directly into the stock instrument bezel of a 1969 Chevy Chevelle, Malibu and El Camino without modification, adding a wealth of features to this iconic vehicle. This system comes with an analog clock gauge (traditional style).
A prime candidate for today's Restomod builds, the '69 Chevelle has been a favorite among enthusiasts for decades. For those that want it "stock, but not", VHX-69C-CVL fills a stock or reproduction dash bezel (bezel shown in pics is not included) with up-to-date and stylish instrumentation, no cutting required! Stock turn signal locations can be retained.
* Requires the use of the factory bezel. Bezel shown in pic is not included, shown for demonstration purposes only.
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 their facility in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, the VHX Series has completely revolutionized the instrumentation industry!
