Description
The Dakota Digital HDX-65F-MUS-S is a complete HDX instrument system designed as a direct fit for 1965-66 Ford Mustangs using original or reproduction gauge bezels. This system features silver alloy gauge-face styling and combines six analog gauge sweeps with a full color TFT message center, delivering modern technology with classic gauge presentation. It connects cleanly to a variety of drivetrains, from a 289 to a 5.0L Coyote.
Each gauge reading and needle can be independently illuminated in the user's choice of color, as well as the message center display, allowing for a fully customized instrument panel appearance. Needle hubs are black nickel plated spun-aluminum to match the system's capacitive-touch control buttons. Calibration and personal settings are managed through the built-in buttons or the available Bluetooth app for Apple and Android devices.
Installation is simplified through a central control box that uses vehicle-harness sourced signals along with included solid state sending units that connect cleanly to their respective terminals. This system uses an OEM or reproduction style bezel, which is not included.
