Description
The Dakota Digital RTX-69C-NOV-X RTX Instrument System is a direct-fit replacement gauge package designed for 1969-76 Chevy Nova models, combining analog gauges, digital bar graph displays, and a full-color digital message center into one advanced instrument cluster. This system delivers both a modern, customizable look and comprehensive vehicle monitoring capability while retaining compatibility with the factory dash, trim, and bezel.
Each gauge features full LED backlighting with RGB technology, allowing the user to independently select needle color, sweep color, and digital display color from over 30 options. Twelve factory preset color themes are included, or users can fully customize each color zone to create a unique look for both daytime and nighttime driving.
Programming and operation are handled through an included two-sided pushbutton rocker switch or through the free Dakota Digital mobile app, compatible with Android and Apple devices, for convenient setup, calibration, and real-time diagnostic readouts.
