Dakota Digital Series III instrument systems offer the latest technologies and features for your custom vehicle. High brightness vacuum fluorescent displays provide a lifetime of trouble free use while offering increased accuracy and features!

 

Full 6 Gauge Instrument System includes new reproduction bezel for 1965*- 66 Ford Mustang. 
*Fits 1965 Applications with Pony or GT Interiors and all 1966 Models.

 

This system is engineered specifically for the first-generation 1965 and 1966 Ford Mustang (explicitly fitting 1965 models with the upgraded Pony or GT interiors and all standard 1966 models that share the round 5-gauge bezel layout).

Core Specifications & Features

  • The Bezel Layout ("GT"): The "GT" in the part number means the kit ships completely pre-installed into a brand-new, factory-accurate reproduction GT-style black camera-case finish dash bezel, eliminating the need to modify your original plastic cluster.

  • Display Tech ("VFD3"): Unlike their newer full-color graphical screens, the VFD3 series uses highly classic, ultra-bright Vacuum Fluorescent Displays. These are digital numerical readouts known for exceptional visibility in direct sunlight and long-term durability.

  • Color Configuration ("Z"): The "-Z" suffix signifies that the kit features user-selectable dual-color backlighting options, allowing you to alternate between a vibrant Blue or Teal illumination layout.
     

Included Digital Gauge Monitors

The system completely modernizes the instrument cluster by replacing the analog needles with exact digital readouts:

  • Speedometer: 0–255 MPH

  • Tachometer: 0–17,500 RPM

  • Oil Pressure: 0–99 PSI

  • Water Temperature: 0–300°F

  • Fuel Level: 0–99%

  • Voltmeter: 8–17 VDC
     

Integrated Message Center & Performance Tracking

Tucked within the layout is a solid-state digital message center operated via an included remote pushbutton, which tracks standard and high-performance metrics:

  • Odometer & dual trip meters

  • 0–60 MPH acceleration timer

  • 1/4-mile clock and trap-speed recall

  • High-speed and peak RPM history recalls

Kit Inclusions

  • Sensors: Dakota Digital includes all required solid-state sending units (water temperature, electronic oil pressure, and a cable-replacing pulse generator speed sensor) to complete the installation.
