1970-72 Buick Skylark VHX Instrument System by Dakota Digital®

VHX system retains the factory bezel while adding six analog gauges, LCD data and included senders.

Upgrade your 1970-72 Buick Skylark with Dakota Digital's VHX instrument system. This Dakota Digital VHX system combines six analog gauge sweeps with digital LCD message-center data. The analog gauges monitor speed, engine RPM, oil pressure, water temperature, fuel level and voltage using micro-controlled stepper motors, fully illuminated needles and LED-backlit faces. The LCD centers add a one-time-settable million-mile odometer, dual trip meters, 12-hour clock, digital gauge readouts, 0-60 mph and quarter-mile performance timers, trap-speed data, high-speed recall and high-RPM recall. The included solid-state sender package provides water-temperature, oil-pressure and cable-driven speed sensing, plus common NPT/metric adapter bushings, control box, switch assembly and harnessing. Pushbutton setup handles speedometer calibration, cylinder count and fuel-level calibration. Current black-plastic VHX control boxes also support Dakota Digital BIM expansion modules for additional data channels. Dakota Digital specifies use of the factory bezel, which is not included. Analog ranges are 0-160 MPH speedometer, 0-8,000 RPM tachometer, 0-80 psi oil pressure, 100-260°F water temperature, fuel level and 9-17 VDC voltage. Black or Silver Alloy face styling is available with blue, red or white backlighting depending on configuration. The LCD centers provide clear day/night visibility and programmable vehicle/performance information.
