How to delete the digital speedometer???

[RagnarKon]

Dang, I want that full digital dash so bad. Anyone have links to a video of available screens/settings on the Raptor full digital dash?

@evilletruck has a video on it here.

It's not quite a perfect plug-n-play setup. Obviously some of the functions available on Bronco Raptor are not available on the regular Bronco and vice versa, so there is some "jank" involved. Up to you if you feel the $2600 is worth it or not.

My opinion? Not worth it. We know that an all-digital screen is available on the Chinese-manufactured Bronco, so a lot of people have speculated that it might be coming to the North American market in the not-so-distant future.

While I belive analog is the way to go for a tach I much prefer digital speedometer as you can quick glance your speed much faster.

I prefer analog because then I have the excuse "Oh, it looked like I was only doing 65 but it must have been a bit over because of parallax error due to my analog needle".

Some options:

- Hold your hand over your face so you can't see the digital speedo. This may not be safe, YMMV.
- Alternatively, use say two fingers closer to your face.
- Have a passenger reach over and cover the speedo with their hand.
- Glue a duck you stole from a Jeep on the plastic fascia.
- Tape over it (as suggested).
- Spray paint.
- Move your badge to cover.
- Get a heads up display and ignore the dash.
- Put your seat back far enough you can't see the dash over the air bag bump.

Not responsible for, uh, problems that may arise.

I miss the old days when your speedo was run by a cable and the needle would bounce around, am I going 20 or 30 mph

I used to unplug the speedo cable from my trans in my ‘84 Bronco ii. 150,000 miles only registered 70,000 miles

Dash is straight of a Chevy Lumina from 1987. I like the digital. Lose the analog speedo and give me a real tach, problem solved Ford.

I don't even think I've seen the analog one in the bronco for like 2 years....

You might be the only person who's ever looked at that fuck awful analog speedo that shouldn't even exist.

I can't even see it. I drive a stick, so left hand is at roughly 10-11 o'clock. Analog speedo is behind my hand/arm. I forget it's even there for months at at time.

The weak point of the Bronco is the instrument cluster. How in the world did that design make it through? It's the only thing I really hate about my Bronco.

I'm pretty sure I hate the awful electric parking brake more. But the dash cluster is definitely up there.

Its 2024, who TF is using the analog gauge? You literally just look at the digital read out and know in a instant what your speed is, why even bother with the analog gauge?

the analog gauge better for judging how fast acceleration is occurring (dVelocity/dTime) by monitoring the sweep rate on the hand.

digital gives discrete snapshots of the velocity

If it comes with the 2025 refresh and is borderline plug and play with 21-24, I will be hounding every Ford dealership in Denver to get ahold of one

Suggested edit: Dash is straight [out] of a Chevy Lumina from 1987 which was first built in 1990.

I'd get one.

But with digital, you can say, "What? 85??? I thought it said 65. Well, officer, I don't see so good these days, heh heh..."
