    VHX control box dimensions

    Any one have dimensions for a Dakota Digital VHX control box? I got them a couple years ago from someone else but the box had 4 mounting holes so it's obviously changed. They're apparently using a different interface to the gauges now. I can't find any dimensions on the DD website and I need to make mounting provisions for it before I buy the gauges later this summer. Got too much to spend money on right now to get them.

    I need overall length and width, and mounting hole spacing for the 2-hole version.

    Here's what it looks like now....

    Got a hold of Greg at Dakota Digital and this is what he told me....

    The ribbon cable is reserved for the digital systems, and the square aluminum box was phased out mid-2010. The plastic control box measures 5.5” x 4.5” x 1” and the mounting holes are 6 1/8” on center.

    I apparently mis-read the e-mail I got from another trifivechevys member, and thought there were 4 mounting holes at one time.
