Description
The Dakota Digital RTX-70D-CLG-X is a direct-fit instrument system engineered specifically for 1970-74 Dodge Challenger and Plymouth Cuda models equipped with the Rallye dash. This system bolts directly into the stock dash opening and accepts the original front bezel, preserving the factory appearance while delivering modern electronic performance and capability.
Turn signal and brake indicators are illuminated by built-in LEDs, making this system an excellent match for a GEN III Hemi conversion or any late-model drivetrain upgrade. The RTX series focuses on retaining the stock appearance while adding late-model features, with careful attention paid to OEM design elements including layout, face styling, and indicator placement.
Each gauge housing is CNC machined and filled with electronics designed and built in-house by Dakota Digital. A high-definition TFT message center can be configured to display a wide range of vehicle information, and a central control box simplifies installation and setup.
