1978-85 G-Body Round-Gauge RTX Instrument System by Dakota Digital®
Factory-inspired RTX styling adds analog gauges, configurable LED lighting and TFT driver information.
Dakota Digital's RTX-78C-MC-X is the early-style RTX system for round-gauge Chevrolet/GMC G-Body dashboards. Dakota Digital's current RTX family application covers 1978-88 Monte Carlo and 1978-87 El Camino/Malibu/Caballero, with RTX-78C-MC-X providing the 1978-85-style cluster appearance. Dakota Digital's RTX system retains factory-inspired face styling while adding modern electronic instrumentation. Six analog gauges monitor speed, engine RPM, oil pressure, water temperature, fuel level and voltage, while high-definition TFT message centers provide odometer/trip information, digital readouts, performance data and configurable driver information. A central control box simplifies vehicle-signal and sender connections, and the system includes the required oil-pressure, water-temperature and speed senders. User-selectable LED illumination lets you tune gauge, needle and message-center appearance, and compatible systems support app-based setup. Current black-plastic RTX control boxes can also accept Dakota Digital BIM expansion modules. The analog layout includes a 0-140 MPH speedometer, 0-8,000 RPM tachometer, 0-80 psi oil pressure, 100-260°F water temperature, fuel level and 9-17 VDC voltage. The system installs with a stock round-gauge style cluster; bezel and housing are not supplied, and sweep-style clusters are not compatible.
