Description
The Dakota Digital RTX-68D-STD-X is a stock-inspired, direct-fit instrument cluster designed for 1968-70 Dodge Charger and other Mopar B-Body models that did not originally come with the Rallye dash. This system installs into your stock instrument surround and dash pad for a clean, factory-style appearance. Inside, a pair of TFT message centers deliver configurable information alongside five analog-sweep instruments and all the essential indicators.
The RTX series brings OEM-inspired design elements, layout and face styling together with modern LED backlighting and late-model features. CNC machined housings house in-house designed electronics, and a central control box simplifies installation and setup. High-definition TFT message centers can be configured to display a wide range of vehicle information.
