I was wondering if anybody has had Dakota Digital build a custom gauge set for their Luv? Would anybody else be interested?

Mine are Cyberdyne. I wish I would have went with Dakota Digital but they were a little more expensive.

I did that back in the early 90's.
You can see more pics of the install here.

Did you have to send your instrument cluster to them?

No I had billet piece made by this guy when he was just starting out.

He used the original cluster for a template. Our truck club met him at a few car shows throughout Denver, he made his own 671 blower housing out of billet when he was 17. 8)

I will give him a message and see if he still has the template. And I think I will call Dakota Digital too.

I highly doubt it as it was 20 years ago, he just fabbed it up on the spot from the cluster (working out of his garage at the time) and he pretty much only does high end chopper stuff now.

Well maybe that might be the way to go anyway! I can get access to aluminum and tooling.
