Get the Lowdown on the VHX Instruments for Your '66-'67 Cutlass

So, you've got a 1966 or 1967 Oldsmobile Cutlass and you want to bring that classic ride into the modern age without losing its soul? The VHX instrument system is just what you need. Oldsmobile really nailed it with the redesign of the A-body platform back in '66, and now you can keep that vibe while adding some serious tech under the hood.

These gauges fit right into your stock bezel—no need for any crazy modifications. Sure, you’ll have to do a bit of tweaking inside the instrument housing, but the manual breaks it down nice and easy. Once you're done, you’ll have six analog readings that keep you informed and looking sharp. You can pick between a sleek Black or a striking Silver Alloy face, which definitely keeps the Chevy crowd guessing.

What Makes the VHX Series Stand Out?

First off, let’s talk visibility. The fully lit needles and backlit faces mean you won’t be squinting to see what’s going on, even in the dark. Plus, the LCD message center is super easy to read. But it’s not just about looks; these gauges are packed with tech. They use micro-controlled precision stepper motors and solid-state sensors, giving you accuracy you can trust. And if that wasn’t enough, Dakota Digital backs it up with a lifetime warranty—talk about peace of mind!
