I did a search for some pictures of the Nodskog Digital dash. But none could be found. Who has one of these dashes. What color did you choose, and how are these for viewing in the sunlight? I noticed Jza had done a review on it, but it's no longer there. Thanks

I talk to him all the time he isnt om much anymore cause he is moving, but im planning on doing this very soon. Here is a picture of it. Alls I know is he loves it.

That looks awesome.. Do you know how visible it is in the daylight? thats my only concern..

Blackened

Does that picture looks like it was taken during nightime ?!?

FastElectrics

YOU know what I mean Blackened. That pic as you can see is in a Garage. "Daylight" as in the sun shining inside the car. or on the dash..

Jza

Yes, you can see it even with the sun shining directly on it, although that's pretty rare since our Camaro's dashpad has such a dramatic overhang.

FastElectrics

Hey Jza.. Ok thanks.. now are your their super bright red ones.. or the standard ones.. I was planning on going with Amber color. Any thoughts on that? Thanks

Jza

They're bright red. They also dim when you turn the headlights on. If you want them to stay bright at night, then you just rotate your dash dimmer to off (obviously you remove all the dash bulbs when you install it; so the dash dimmer isn't doing anything).

>Any thoughts?

Whichever one you pick, you'll like it. I'd like to swap out the red segments for blue ones one day, plus I have a trick idea for the acrylic lens (sorry, it's a secret for now ). But I already have the red accents everywhere else it wouldn't make much sense to swap to blue now.

Blackened

Finding blue segments will be REALLY tough. I don't think they even make them yet.

Ya who wants to pay 500$???????? thats alot of money for me

esmartuek

When you're in my situation, this nordskog sounds perfect... even if it cost me $800... I'd be buying it.
If it just sounds like a luxury and not a necessity, of course it's going to sound expensive.

Jza

NordSkog doesn't sell the dash with blue sements. I was talking about buying the segments seperately and installing them in place of the reds. Digikey sells blue segments.

I have to agree. If I didn't get mine for free, I probably wouldn't have one.

Actually, the Dakota Digital dash is over $500. The Nord-Skog is around $360, but it's still a lot IMO.

Hey JZA I was looking through summit and they raised the price to $499!!!!!!!!!!!!! now I was so pissed when I saw that. Oh well Im gonna buying it anyway, but that still makes me mad. It used to be like 300 something.

Jza

Holy monkies, you're right. Those bastards.. Wow, that sucks. Especially for you. That just means that many less people will have them, though. You'll be more "original" and I use the word loosely.

I guess i am glad i got mine way before the price went up.
Now my only problem is i don't know if i want ti install them.
By the way the price was $346. well that's what i paid

Jza

Why don't you want to install them?

Does that cluster have all the idiot lights and check engine light? I don't think you can pass CA smog without a check engine light.

I can't tell you about the brand listed above, but if its similair to the old cyberdyne, they are tough in direct sunlight. And when I say direct, it is on a convertible. They look the same as what you are looking at (same tinted plastic), I think yours are just more updated in the electonics part of the gages, but still will be difficult in direct sunlight. here is a pic of mine, but its not in direct sunlight, under a tree, if it was in the sun, you wouldn't see it.
