Still not perfect for a tall driver like me, but at least acceptable. I'm 6'2", so I would think that drivers 6' and under would have no issue at all, and taller drivers can live with these gauges as they are now. Not so happy with the extra expense I incurred for having the gauges replaced, but still grateful to Dakota Digital for stepping up and fixing the problem. As the starter of this thread, I would like to change the title from Dakota Digital RTX - Don't Buy!, to Dakota Digital RTX - they fixed the problem! Does anyone know if this is possible? I have not been able to find a way to edit the title of the thread.
Title changed.

Original gauges, before redesign on left.

After redesign of gauges on right.

I'm 6'2", so seeing this much of the gauges is acceptable I'm my opinion.


Before on left, after on right
