Description
The 1992-96 Ford Truck/Bronco RTX Instrument System brings Dakota Digital's latest instrumentation technology to these classic, boxy Ford pickups and Broncos without sacrificing their original equipment appearance. Every effort has been put into retaining OEM design elements in layout, face styling, and indicators, so a casual glance might mistake this system for factory equipment. Once the switch is hit and the LED backlighting comes on in your favorite color scheme, however, all doubts will be removed.
Built from scratch with CNC machined housings and electronics designed and engineered in-house, this RTX system features high-definition TFT message centers that can be fully configured to display a wide range of vehicle information. As with other Dakota Digital systems, the RTX series uses a central control box to simplify installation and setup.
This system uses the OEM bezel, which is not included. Customers retaining the stock ECU and transmission will need to keep the factory PSOM removed from the OEM gauge cluster; details are included in the installation manual.
