Description
Update the dash of a 1982-89 Chevy Camaro with the RTX Instrument System from Dakota Digital. Designed for third generation Camaros, this system retains that factory appearance while delivering the late-model features and technology enthusiasts want. Careful attention was given to OEM design elements, including layout, face styling and indicators, so the gauges look right at home in the original dash opening. This system does not fit the Berlinetta digital dash.
Starting from scratch, CNC machined housings are filled with electronics designed and built in-house. 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. Full LED backlighting with over 30 user-selectable color options lets the owner independently set needle color, sweep color and digital display color, with 12 factory preset themes available for a quick, great-looking setup or full custom color zone selection.
This system uses an OEM or reproduction style bezel; the bezel itself is not included with the instrument system.
