1954-1955 1st VHX Instrument Gauge Cluster Carbon Face/Red Illumination Chevrolet/GMC Truck

Dakota Digital Direct-Fit instrument systems are fully engineered to fit the stock dash opening of the vehicle they were designed for.
If you are interested in using this instrument system in a vehicle in which it was not intended to fit, you may experience installation challenges as it relates to mounting and proper viewing angle.
Additionally, any modifications should be done to the vehicles dash or surrounding housings, rather than the VHX System, as to prevent damage and retain warranty coverage.
Approximate dimensions are as follows:
Required opening: 6.150
Overall Dimensions: 6.4
Depth will generally mimic the stock gauge cluster, this often falls in the 1.5-2.5 range.
If you require further dimension details, please contact Dakota Digital at 800-852-3228.
