1970-81 Camaro HDX Instruments:HDX-70C-CAM

The European-inspired design of 1970- 81 Camaros gave us a cockpit full of driver-oriented instruments; high-zoot in 1970 but long in the tooth today. This HDX package is a bolt-in operation and brings fully configurable, twin TFT message centers in addition to six analog needles with stepper motor movements. Black or silver face styling and user-settable illumination assures a perfect match to your theme. HDX-70C-CAM utilizes a stock or reproduction bezel, as one is not supplied.

Available with your choice of black or silver alloy gauge-face styling, each HDX system allows the user to select independent illumination colors for the gauge readings and needles, as well as the message centers. Calibration and personal settings are manipulated with the built-in, capacitive-touch buttons, or the available Bluetooth app for Apple and Android devices. Each needle hub is black nickel plated spun-aluminum to match the buttons. All HDX instrument systems feature dead-faced indicators (turn signals, high beam, check engine, cruise control, parking brake, plus two user-definable), and a red, settable warning light for each gauge. With our central control box, installation is greatly simplified with vehicle-harness sourced signals and supplied, solid state sending units connecting cleanly to their respective terminal.

LIGHTING TECHNOLOGY

COLOURS Over 30 user-selectable color options allow you to independently change the needle color, sweep color and digital TFT display color.
BRIGHTNESS Both daytime and nighttime brightness can be easily controlled through the RTX setup menu, allowing you to choose your preferred lighting intensity level, toggled by the activation of the headlight switch. If on-the-fly rotary type control is desired, the DIM-1 is a common accessory to add this functionality.
THEMES With 12 factory preset color themes, you can quickly create a beautiful looking system. Or, for the ultimate in customization, choose all of the color zones yourself.
TECHNOLOGY Full LED backlighting provides a strikingly visual gauge package, with sharp contrast for ease of viewing both night and day. Full RBG backlighting allows you to create the specific color you want, with a unique daytime and nighttime theme if desired. Whether your goal is an OE look or something truly bold, the RTX Series lets you make that choice.

CALIBRATION

PUSH BUTTON

Dakota Digital instruments are programmed by pushbutton. Use the included buttons to calibrate your speedometer, set cylinder count, and fuel level. Access all secondary data via the Digital Message Centers.

 

CALIBRATION

All calibration settings are handled through onboard capacitive touch switches or the remote Bluetooth app. While many calibration settings exist, the speedometer and fuel level are completed in most cases (unless GPS-50-2 is used, negating the need to calibrate the speedometer) through a few taps of the pushbuttons and a short test drive of the vehicle.
