Re: Dakota Dash rocks...

Well if I may be so bold.

How much?

How hard?

How quick?

Where did you get them?

Cheers,

Re: Dakota Dash rocks...

$550, more if you want a clock, very simple once you find a place to mount the cpu, I had a plate welded behind the original dash cluster, then mounted the cpu to it. then wiring up the dash harness and installing the sending units, only 3 to add, use your gas sending unit. Can be done in a day if there are no distractors, usually can be found in any car magazines or look at dakota digital .com, If i can do it anyone can..........Auto calibrates the speedometer and the fuel sending unit is selected through a menu. You have to use your dash bezel.
