Custom Mounted Instruments - Uses Original Bezels
From Dakota Digital
Dakota Digital's unique Custom Shop can help you achieve your digital or analog instrumentation dreams! Our craftsmen can customize your instrument cluster with a Digital Vacuum Fluorescent Display (VFD) System or the newer Hybrid Analog/ Digital VHX system, using the stock (OEM) gauge housing from your car or truck. From basic projects like color-matching the instrument system gauge face to your paint or interior color, to a one-off custom build within your existing instrument housing, our craftsmen can make it happen!
If you like what Dakota Digital currently offers in the VHX Direct Fit series of gauges but want a custom color background to match your interior, company logo or add a graphic, we can help with that also!
Because of the scope of a custom project, the ideal first step is to contact our Custom Shop with your idea, drawings or renderings. Once a project foundation can be put in place, a price quote, lead time and renderings can be determined before turning our crew loose on creating a show-stopping set of instruments.
If we are building a custom instrument system into your existing gauge housing, please prepare this to a finished state (i.e. paint, chrome, polish, etc.) before sending the bezel and housing to us. Our custom service including the construction of the instrument system into your supplied housing, unfortunately we do not provide chrome, paint or traditional restoration services.
In many cases, the included front clear lens will be retained, therefore this should shipped in usable condition.
If you have any questions about your dash, please contact our Custom Shop directly at (605) 349-7058 to discuss them.
Current Custom Shop lead times range from 7-8 months.
