Add some 21st Century technology to your Jet-Smooth ride! A simple bolt-in installation**, this package affords six analog, sweep-needles plus a full-color, fully-configurable TFT message center. You’ll feel like you’re in the cockpit of a trans-Atlantic flight with all of the information at your fingertips. This dash features silver face styling. Also fits Biscayne and Bel Air. (bezel is NOT included).

System use OEM or reproduction style bezel.
Available with your choice of black or silver alloy gauge-face styling, each HDX system allows the user to select their favorite illumination color for the gauge readings and needles, as well as the TFT message center displays. RGB LEDs are incorporated into the circuit boards for fully-adjustable display colors, allowing the user to personalize their instrument system to match nearly any vehicle theme.
Calibration and personal settings are manipulated with the built-in, capacitive-touch buttons, or the Bluetooth app for Apple and Android devices. Each needle hub is black nickel plated spun-aluminum to match the buttons. All HDX instrument systems feature dead-faced indicators (turn signals, high beam, check engine, cruise control, parking brake, plus two user-definable), and a red, settable warning light for each gauge. With the central control box, installation is greatly simplified with vehicle-harness sourced signals and supplied, solid state sending units connecting cleanly to their respective terminal. Scroll through the listing below for a more in-depth look at the HDX series!
Metric
system (KM/H and degrees Celsius) is available as a custom option for
no additional cost, but may take a few weeks longer to build.
The HDX series from Dakota Digital is the latest in aftermarket automotive instrumentation technology. HDX takes personalization and usability to a whole new dimension while retaining your favorite features from the wildly popular VHX-series such as LED backlighting for the numbers, tick marks and dead-faced dash indicators (turn signals, high beam, check engine, cruise control engaged and parking brake). Illuminated needles and a lifetime warranty are still part of the deal as well. These features add up to a clean, easy to read instrument system in all conditions. Precision stepper motors provide accurate needle movement along with a full-sweep at key-on, and the needle hubs are black nickel plated spun-aluminum.
With the
instrument system dialed in, including calibration of the speedometer
and fuel gauge, the system can calculate your remaining fuel range,
expressed in miles to empty. Every kit is supplied with an optional
buzzer for feedback each time a button is pressed. Further, the
buzzer can emit a warning tone for each reading at a user-defined set
point to coincide with the dead-faced, red warning lights incorporated
into the gauge faces.
Vehicle integration through a central control box has become a calling card for Dakota Digital, and the advantages are substantial. Most notably, installation is greatly simplified; two power (constant and switched) and one ground connection get things up and running, while vehicle-harness sourced signals and sensor inputs run cleanly to their respective terminal. Supplied, solid state sending units with weather-tight harnesses ensure trouble-free operation. The control box allows for easier service, a nicer-looking finished product, in addition to an abundance of technology packed into a vintage dashboard.

Both daytime and nighttime brightness can be easily controlled through the HDX setup menu, allowing you to choose your preferred lighting intensity level, toggled by the activation of the headlight switch. If on-the-fly rotary type control is desired, the DIM-1 (sold separately) is a common accessory to add this functionality.

Technology
Full
LED backlighting provides a strikingly visual gauge package, with sharp
contrast for ease of viewing both night and day. Full RBG backlighting

and nighttime theme if desired. Whether your goal is an OE look or
something truly bold, the HDX Series lets you make the choice.

Calibration and Use
Pushbutton Control
All
HDX Series Instrument Systems included LED-lit onboard capacitive touch
pushbuttons through the gauge face. These pushbuttons provide quick and
consistent access to all functions, either in driving mode or while in
the setup menu. Button-press feedback is available through the TFT
Message Center, or through the included buzzer. Additionally, remote
mounted switches can be wired into the HDX system if this proves more
accessible based upon seating position. The HDX series can also be
completely configured through the Bluetooth app, suitable to Android and
Apple devices. Download the free app to your tablet or smart phone,
sync your device to the HDX system, and enjoy quick and convenient menu
navigation and real time gauge readouts for diagnostic use or a
secondary display.
Calibration
All
calibration settings are handled through onboard capacitive touch
switches or the remote Bluetooth app. While many calibration settings
exist, the speedometer and fuel level are completed in most cases
(unless GPS-50-2 is used, negating the need to calibrate the speedometer
- GPS-50-2 is available for purchase separately) through a few taps of the pushbuttons and a short test drive of the vehicle.
