Description
The Dakota Digital RTX-32F-X is a complete electronic instrument system engineered specifically for the 1932 Ford Car. Combining analog gauge movements, digital bar graph displays, and a built-in TFT message center, this system delivers a fully customizable blend of classic and modern gauge technology in a direct-fit package for the 1932 Ford.
Each gauge features full LED backlighting with over 30 user-selectable color options, allowing independent control of needle color, sweep color, and digital display color. Twelve factory preset color themes are available, or users can create their own custom color zones for a truly personalized look, with separate daytime and nighttime lighting themes.
The system is configured and operated using an included two-sided pushbutton rocker switch, or through the available Dakota Digital mobile app for Android and Apple devices, which also allows real-time gauge readouts for diagnostic use or as a secondary display.

Notes
- Gear position indicator requires optional GSS-3000 sensor (sold separately)
- Cable driven speed sensor requires approximately 5" clearance between the cable drive output and any obstruction; part number 130011 (sold separately) allows relocation of the pulse generator when additional clearance is needed
