1978-88 Oldsmobile Cutlass VHX Instrument Cluster by Dakota Digital®
Direct-fit VHX cluster adds six analog gauges, LCD data and included electronic senders.
Upgrade your 1978-88 Oldsmobile Cutlass with a Dakota Digital VHX instrument system built for the original dash architecture. The analog ranges include 0-160 MPH speedometer, 0-8,000 RPM tachometer, 0-80 psi oil pressure, 100-260°F water temperature, E-to-F fuel level and 9-17 VDC voltage. The VHX system combines traditional analog presentation with modern electronic control. Six analog gauges monitor speed, engine RPM, oil pressure, water temperature, fuel level and voltage, while LCD message centers add digital gauge readouts plus odometer, dual trip-meter, clock and performance information including 0-60 mph, quarter-mile time, trap-speed, high-speed and high-RPM recall. Micro-controlled stepper motors drive the gauges, with fully illuminated needles, LED-backlit faces and solid-state senders. The included sender package supplies water-temperature, oil-pressure and cable-driven speed sensing, with threaded adapter bushings, control box, switch assembly and display-to-control-box cabling. Programmable calibration accommodates tire-size/rear-gear changes, cylinder count and fuel-sender setup. Built-in indicators support turn signals, high beam, check engine, parking brake and other available vehicle functions. Current VHX control boxes also support Dakota Digital BIM expansion modules for additional data channels. The VHX display installs in the original dash opening and is secured with the factory cluster mounting screws. Dakota Digital’s manual shows removal of the original cluster and spacer before the VHX display and CAT5 lead are installed. Available configurations include Black or Silver Alloy faces with blue, red or white illumination.
