Digital dashes

Okie I wanted to see some pics of the GTA digital dash and if anyone had some other type of digital dash, like the digital dakota. OR a KITT dash LOL( humm this is a thirdgen site how come no one here has a KITT? lol) Also how hard would it be to swap at digital dash into a 92 bird? I am not sure If I want one yet, if I did get one I dout it would be a gta but we will see ( I hear about there problems alot) Oh also I did a search already and could not turn up much.

I didn't forget. He didn't ask. I bet he's glad he didn't, too.

Those pics are from some site that makes KITT conversions. It's pretty inflated if you ask me. You can get custom dash pieces from Nord-Skog and end up with the same thing for about $500. $500 is about par for ANY full gauge cluster conversion, digital or analog.

I am not too fond of green, but I really like the green LED's in that cluster. I'll get that cluster when I win the lottery since that is a very expensive luxury item.

That cluster is not an in-stock item.
This is the email I got from Mark,
"The stock replacement gauge cluster, as are all of the companies products, is covered by a limited lifetime warranty. If anything happens to the electronic components by natural defect, then its covered. Improper installation, self repair, backengineering, etc voids any warranty.

They are not a stocking item and would have to be ordered and then they would be built based upon current product schedule. It would be about 6 weeks or so before one would be ready to ship."

I got the dash off ebay $200 and the wiring harness cost me $75 it was easy to do just wire for wire. You can find it for cheaper.
