something like that would be fine with me .... that dash list for $802 on Amazon .... I wonder what the difference would be to substitute something like that for an Elgin

You can register using your Google, Facebook, or Twitter account, just click here.This design does not appeal to me but I can see where it might make anti-Elgin dash people happy. :-) ZFYI: http://www.dakotadigital.com/index....t_id=847/category_id=416/mode=prod/prd847.htm

The new Universal VHX-1017 Elliptical gauge cluster measures 12.05" W x 5.7" H
Fully lit needles, backlit faces, and highly visible LCD message centers are a few of the things that you can see which set the VHX Series apart from yesterday’s traditional approach to instrumentation. A few of the features which you don’t normally see are the micro-controlled precision stepper motors, solid state sensors for unparalleled accuracy, and user-customizable display feedback, all supported by an unrivaled limited lifetime warranty which has become the standard for Dakota Digital instrumentation systems . Completely engineered and manufactured at our facility in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, the VHX Series has completely revolutionized the instrumentation industry!

This is even harder to read than some of the stuff I have seen - including my vcr. Contrast, contrast, contrast! without it, things are hard to read. :-) ZOR:

The last I heard they might make cruse control part of the original package. Accent on might.I plan on using my Elio for my commute. Does anyone know if cruise control will be an option with the Elio?

just a q- how much do you estimate your equiped car will be OTD?Power leather seats, bodykit, wing, backup camera, wifi, led roof liner, Skys dash, sequential brake and turn signals Mustang style... that's my list.
The Dakota Dashes we've profiled are, indeed $802 on Amazon. That's 'retail' so we can figure Elio could cut a supplier deal & offer a swap for the Elgin &/or some 'option' up-charge.............![]()
