1968 Camaro Dash Instrument Cluster & Console Gauges Set (VHX)

The first generation Camaro began an American legacy. The new VHX (Vehicle Hybrid Instrument Systems) system with console gauges will modernize your ride with the latest technology and styling. Attaching directly to the back side of the stock instrument housing, the fitment couldn’t be simpler. Fully lit needles, backlit faces, and highly visible LCD message centers are a few of the things that you can see which set the VHX Series apart from yesterday’s traditional approach to instrumentation. A few of the features which you don’t normally see are the micro-controlled precision stepper motors, solid state sensors for unparalleled accuracy, and user-customizable display feedback, all supported by an unrivaled limited lifetime warranty. The VHX Series has completely revolutionized the instrumentation industry! Dash cluster housing and console gauge housings are sold separately.

Please specify your desired finish for the instrument faces (carbon fiber or silver alloy) as well as the color desired for the display (blue or red) from the available drop-down menus. ( Speedometer & Tachometer in dash. Oil Pressure, Water Temp, Voltmeter & Fuel Gauge set in console gauge pod. )
