Intellitronix - Replacement Gauge Panel - any feedback?

[davisjstone]

Does anyone have experience with the intellitronix bronco gauge cluster/digital dash? I've been looking at one for a while and am looking for feedback. Good, Bad?

What I have read, not promising.

Looks as if they copied the New Vintage USA (NVU) gauges.
My cam designer used NVU on a 1967 Firebird restoration and had a few LEDS go out after the 5 year warranty period. He called them up, sent in the gauge and was returned a new gauge for free (outside of the warranty period).

Reminds me of what BCB was selling... I had one in my 75 Bronco about 20 years ago. It was okay, but the aftermarket gauges now offered have come a long way since then. They cost more, but I think have a better fit in the Bronco, from an original look standpoint.

I wonder if they forgot to do market research, the venn diagram of EB fans and digital gauge fans doesn't seem to have a lot of overlap. Personally I like digital gauges a lot so I'm going to give them a try.

My 6G has both an analog speedo and digital speedo and I can recall the last time I looked at the analog, that's what pushed me to buying these.

If they don't hold up long term I'll likely move onto individual digital gauges from another brand and redesign the dash.

A wise old retired mechanical engineer once told me, "If you go cheap, you can afford to do it again....".
-I would carefully read about the problems intellitronix has (product and customer service).

Good find. I certainly like the look of other clusters, but the price on this caught my interest. Probably for a reason I suppose . The hours troubleshooting may certainly offset the cost of the more expensive options.

Spend the money on Dakota Digital, imo. Pricey but worth it and they stand behind their stuff.

If you want digital, theirs is here. A little more expensive, but what would you pay to not have to do it twice and pay for both?

Haha, I replied before seeing your response…much better said.

The digital gauges are nice but I’d have to put on my reading glasses to use read them.
