1967- 72 Ford Pickup VHX Instruments

No longer playing second fiddle to the same-year Chevy, your ’67–72 F100 can enjoy the latest in instrumentation technology. Designed to work with either style of bezel (plastic or metal), this kit offers a simple drop-in installation. Choose from carbon fiber, silver, or black alloy gauge faces, paired with red, blue, or white LED backlighting for a modern update to a classic hauler.

Fully lit needles, backlit faces, and highly visible LCD message centers are just a few of the features that set the VHX Series apart from traditional instrumentation. Behind the scenes, micro-controlled precision stepper motors, solid-state sensors for unmatched accuracy, and user-customizable display feedback deliver performance you don’t normally see. All of this is backed by an unrivaled limited lifetime warranty that has become the standard for Dakota Digital instrumentation systems.

Engineered and manufactured at Dakota Digital’s facility in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, the VHX Series has redefined modern instrumentation for classic trucks.

Bezel not included, shown for visual and presentation purposes only. The system uses an OEM or reproduction steel or plastic bezel.
