Description
The RTX-33F-X brings the RTX series from Dakota Digital to the 1933-34 Ford car, blending the look of fine jewelry with modern instrumentation technology. Brushed instrument faces are set within a chrome bezel featuring an engine-turned aluminum insert, while engine RPM is displayed through an LED bar graph that wraps around the outside of the speedometer. A full-color TFT message center allows additional information to be displayed beyond the standard six functions. The billet aluminum housing is designed to match the stamped raised section in the factory 1933-34 Ford car dash; cutting of the dash is required for installation.
The RTX series retains a stock appearance without sacrificing the late-model features enthusiasts want, incorporating OEM design elements in layout, face styling and indicators. A casual glance may mistake it for original equipment until the LED backlighting is activated in the color scheme of your choice.
Each CNC-machined housing is filled with electronics designed and built in-house by Dakota Digital. The high-definition TFT message center can be configured to display a wide range of information, and the system utilizes a central control box to simplify installation and setup.
