If you've got a 1986-93 "Square" S10 or S15, you probably know it's a blank slate for upgrades and personalization. The MHX Direct-fit package is designed to fit right in without any hassle. You can wire it directly to your OEM harness or go with an aftermarket setup if that’s more your style. The best part? It comes with all the sensors you need, making installation a walk in the park. Plus, with a range of background and lighting colors, you can make it match whatever custom vibe you’ve got going on with your ride.

What really sets the MHX Series apart are the details. You’ve got fully lit needles and backlit faces, not to mention two bright LCD message centers that keep everything visible, even in bright sunlight. Under the hood, it’s all about precision, thanks to micro-controlled stepper motors and solid-state sensors that deliver accurate readings. And if you’re worried about longevity, Dakota Digital backs this with a limited lifetime warranty—something they’re known for in the industry.

This system replaces your entire factory instrument cluster and lens assembly. It’s remade with a sturdy billet aluminum housing and tough optical-grade polycarbonate lenses, so you know it’s built to last.
