Description
The Dakota Digital RTX-88C-PU-X Instrument System is a direct-fit replacement gauge cluster designed for 1988-91 Chevy/GMC Truck, Suburban, Tahoe, and Yukon models. Built to retain the stock appearance of the original dash, this system incorporates OEM-style design elements in its layout, face styling, and indicators, while adding modern electronics and fully configurable LED backlighting beneath the surface.
Each RTX gauge cluster starts with a CNC-machined housing 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 the system uses a central control box to simplify installation and setup. Note that the bezel is not included with this system; it is designed to use an OEM or reproduction style bezel.
