Trying to install the HNC-!-P cover and when taking that selector switch slide out it flew somewhere and got lost. Contcted DD and they say they do not have any replacement parts so SOL. Will not even exchange with be paying the difference. So now stuck with a turn signal arm where the cruise control does not work or buying a new arm for $150.

So….i purchased the gauge cluster for my 1967 Mustang. Pretty straightforward installation. Good instructions. My issue is with the coolant sensor. First one was 30 degrees high. I informed DD and they told me to move the sensor to a different location so I moved it onto the manifold. No help. Then I had to “prove” the sensor was wrong. So I heated a cup of water and used a IR sensor to record temp. I then dropped in the DD sensor in the water and yes, off by 30 degrees. So they sent another. Not much better. Off by 25 degrees (high). Did the same thing to prove it to myself as well as I installed another sensor to confirm. My other sensor and the IR gun were within 2 degrees of each other and the DD sensor was high by 25. Noticed on the video I watched of another guy having the same issue. Not real sure where to go from here. It is unnerving looking at the temp at over 200 even though I know the sensor is wrong.considering the cost of this set up, I shouldn’t have to install a separate temp gauge to get an accurate reading…

I ordered the MXL for 2014 Harley-Davidson Limited. I installed my gauges. the install was easy. I took the bezels off my voltage gauge and my gas gauge. The bezel that was installed on my bike on the speedo and the tach was sort of stamped on. I didn't realize that you had to take that off as it was somewhat of a little pain in the ars. Once they explain that to me I was able to get it off and put the gauges in 100% correct. Set up was fairly simple when you use the app with the written instructions that come with the gauges. Now my major problem that I hope I save someone else for paying this much money for these gauges. I can only see in the daytime with my sunglasses my speedometer and my tachometer. I cannot see gauge one or gage two unless I pull my sunglasses down then I can see them. I'm sure everybody can see when you're cruising down the highway at 85 mile an hour who wants to adjust your sunglasses just so they can see all the gauges that you just spent $1,000 for. I don't think this is a very safe product because you can't see your gauges without altering your view ahead of you. I have two things on those guages that I couldn't care less about so I don't look at them. So that means I'm not getting what I paid for. Be wise, check to see what Harley's got for their new gauges look for a different manufacturer but above all do your research and make sure that you can see all four of your gauges

Dash cluster background color does not match advertised pic. Called Dakota digital after purchasing a dash cluster that was supposed to be silver close to white, something that reflected the picture they have online, only to receive a dark gray cluster. Call Dakota digital. They stated if I wanted something more to the color on the picture that would cost two more hundred dollars for a white or silver cluster. Cluster color is a dark gray.

Handlebar mounted digital gauges are difficult if not impossible to read in daylight. Left message for Dakota Digital Customer Service. Response was quick...however I was told that the only fix was in the configuration settings. However this did not fix the problem. Dakota Representative was adamant that it was not a "product issue". This is a known issue...it is all over the internet. Seems Dakota is trying to deflect the issue as not being due to the design of the product....huh? Your gauges should be readable in all circumstances...its is a safety and legal liability issue. If I look down to see my gauges and cant the least of my problems would be receiving a speeding ticket the worst...well.... You would think Dakota Digital would work on a solution or at least offer some sort of quick fix... the configuration settings are useless in this instance. I cannot in good conscience recommend Dakota Digital....beautiful gauges, but almost worthless in daylight.
