Another great vid. Kit looks so much nicer than the NVU stuff for these trucks. No surprise this is the go to gauge kit.

I think I like the label idea! I guess mainly if anyone in the future!?...happens to end up in the dash? It would make things that much easier I guess!?...keep the momentum going with the videos man!, really looking forward to some pretty cool projects possibly bigger? Really liked the front suspension installation! 🇺🇲💯✌

Good morning from Cape Cod 🐟 you do some fine detailed work Mike. I've got all my notifications on but just now realized you had a new video. Freaking KZread 😂 I'm wondering how that gear indicator works out in New England slush and snow 🤔 anyway keep up the great work and the cool videos 👍✌️🇺🇲

You can just connect the ecu wire or use the bim module from Dakota

I have the 6 gauge glowshift set for my 87 Chevy stepside. Been extremely intimidated to attempt to install this..

I’ve never seen a set of those

Do they have a plug that will plug into an OBD plug for ls swaps to get readings from them instead of installing sensors?

@HowesItDoinGarage

They do it’s part # bim-01-2

I also have the VHX and want to put a cruise control , any chance you have done this for a ls dbw?

is this mostly for LS swaps or any old car with a bunch of defunct original gauges?

For running the tach wire, is it just a single wire from the distributor or how does that work? I’m going to have to do that I’m pretty sure

Yes you can run a wire right from the tach output of the distributor or cdi box right into the Dakota box

Does the original dash bezel fits?
