4. Place the VHX system over the back of the bezel and crimp the seven (7) tabs back over
the clear lens. Then, attach the provided 36” CAT5 cable to the back of the VHX system.
Carefully route the other end to the control box mounting location.
2. The stock bezel will be reused; un-crimp the seven (7) tabs that clamp over the stock gauge housing.
The rubber seal should remain inside the stock bezel.
3. If the stock ammeter is still connected in
your rig, tie these wires together. You
can use a short 10-32 screw, or ideally
solder the connection. Be sure to
insulate the connection as these wires
are carrying a large amount of energy.

5. Tip the bottom of the VHX system in the dash to ensure the bottom tabs lay behind the dash and
secure the VHX system to the dash using the two (2) stock mounting screws. You are now done
mounting the VHX display; refer to the main manual for wiring instructions to complete the VHX
installation.
6. The stock oil filter adapter may need to be removed to tap the 1/8 NPT deeper to accommodate the
Dakota Digital sender.
