American Eagle Upgrades

Hey Guys,

I have an 04' 42.5 American Eagle. Anyone know of any companies that make upgrades for interior components? I am hoping to modernize some parts such as the the dash/guage/switches. Let me know your thoughts. Cheers, Scott

Hrm, anything is possible with enough money. You would likely have to approach this on a system by system basis. For example, my smartwheel controls likely would need a compatible interface. For gauges and switches, look at a newer rig built on the same chassis and perhaps a newer version of their "interface" is compatible with your rig with modification.

This would take a lot of homework and research. Also bear in mind that you dont want to end up with a hokey homebuilt looking solution. Much of what makes a dash look "professional" is the moulded plastic and such. That said, every problem has a solution!

Chris

Not specifically with this digital dash but I'm sure it can be done. Contact them and see what they say and if they have any before and after pictures of there dash installed.
