EZGO TXT Dashboard 101: Find Replacement Parts

Replace and Upgrade Your EZGO TXT Dashboard

A new EZGO TXT dashboard can restore a clean, usable cockpit when the original panel is cracked, faded, or short on storage. Before ordering, confirm your cart's TXT model year, body style, and dash mounting layout, then choose a replacement that matches your needs:

• A full dash assembly for a worn or damaged factory panel
• Locking storage and cup holders for daily neighborhood or course use
• A finish such as carbon fiber or woodgrain to match your trim
• Openings or panels that support your key switch, gauges, accessories, or radio setup

Fitment matters most. The E-Z-GO TXT has run for decades across a major 2014 redesign, so do not assume every TXT dash fits every year. For example, Extreme Kartz carries the Carbon Fiber Dash for E-Z-GO TXT 96-13 ($164.95) for pre-2014 carts and the RHOX Carbon Fiber Dash for E-Z-GO TXT 14+ ($229.95) for 2014-and-newer carts. Same finish, different carts, so your model year decides which one fits.

Upgrading Your EZGO TXT Dashboard: Key Benefits and Features

Factory golf cart dashboards are engineered primarily for basic fleet utility. Over years of sun exposure and temperature swings, the original plastic can become brittle, chalky, or cracked. Upgrading to an aftermarket dashboard transforms both the visual appeal and functional utility of your cockpit.

Materials vary by brand. The DoubleTake Sentry, for example, is molded from high-impact ABS-acrylic plastic that is solid color throughout, so it resists flaking and wear. Beyond the look, most of the TXT dashes we carry add locking storage and cup holders to keep your phone, wallet and keys secure while you cruise the neighborhood or play a round.

Choosing the Right EZGO TXT Dashboard Finish and Storage Options

Finding the right finish allows you to personalize your cockpit while keeping maintenance simple. Premium aftermarket options feature finishes designed to complement various interior styling themes:

• Carbon Fiber: Offers a modern, high-performance look that pairs well with sporty custom steering wheels and contemporary custom seat designs. If you want a sleek, modern weave pattern, the Carbon Fiber Dash for E-Z-GO TXT (1996-2013) delivers an immediate cockpit transformation. On a 2014+ cart, choose the RHOX Carbon Fiber Dash for E-Z-GO TXT 14+ instead.
• Woodgrain: Delivers a classic, high-end automotive feel that complements neutral seat fabrics and traditional golf course aesthetics. For 2014+ carts, the EZGO TXT Regal Burl Dark Woodgrain Dash Panel adds two locking compartments.
• Custom Modular Trims: Systems like the DoubleTake Sentry dashboard offer customizable face plates. You can swap accents using the DoubleTake Sentry Dash Center Trim Universal Graphite or brighten the dash face with the DoubleTake Sentry Dash Center Trim Universal Pearl.
• Audio-Ready Configurations: For carts equipped with sound systems, specialized radio-ready layouts feature designated cutouts to support a standard-size receiver and speakers. The EZGO TXT Elite Dash in Carbon Fiber ($434.95, fits 1994.5–2013 TXT) comes pre-cut for a standard-size radio and 6-inch speakers, with open space for extra switches such as a battery meter or 12V accessory outlet.

Please note that all dimensions and prices mentioned are accurate as of publish; you should always confirm exact specs and current pricing on the specific product page for your cart.

Step-by-Step Installation for an EZGO TXT Dashboard

Most aftermarket dashboards are designed as bolt-on upgrades that mount over or in place of the factory instrument console using basic hand tools; some require removing the steering wheel and transferring switches.

1. Disconnect Power: Before handling any dash wiring, cut power: on electric carts switch to Tow mode and disconnect the main battery pack leads; on gas carts disconnect the negative terminal of the 12V battery.
2. Remove Factory Hardware: Remove the steering wheel (if required by your specific dash profile), unbolt the factory cup holder console, and unfasten any factory mounting screws.
3. Transfer Key Switch and Controls: Carefully label and unclip the wiring to your key switch, direction selector, state-of-charge meter, or light switches. Take a photo of each connection before you unplug it so you can match every wire on reassembly.
4. Position the Aftermarket Panel: Align the replacement dashboard onto the cart cowl. Ensure that wire harnesses pass cleanly through designated access ports without pinching.
5. Reinstall Controls and Secure: Reconnect your switches into the new faceplate cutouts, secure the new dash using the supplied hardware, and test each electrical component before finalizing the installation.

EZGO TXT Model Generations and Fitment Guide

Because the E-Z-GO TXT has been in production since the mid-1990s (many parts listings start at 1994.5 or 1996), verifying your cart's exact year and cowl style is the most critical step before purchasing replacement body panels or dashboards.

The biggest fitment line on the TXT is the 2014 model year. E-Z-GO redesigned the front end that year, which is why TXT lift kits, body kits and front-end accessories are usually sold as separate pre-2014 and 2014+ parts. Dashboards follow the same split, so order the one listed for your year:

• Pre-2014 TXT (listed as 94-13, 96-13 or 2013 & Down): the Carbon Fiber Dash for E-Z-GO TXT 96-13, the EZGO TXT Elite Dash in Carbon Fiber (1994.5–2013), and the Carbon Fiber Dash Trim Set for E-Z-GO TXT 94-13 if you only want to refresh the trim.
• 2014+ TXT: the RHOX Carbon Fiber Dash for E-Z-GO TXT 14+ and the EZGO TXT Regal Burl Dark Woodgrain Dash Panel (2014+).
• Both eras: the DoubleTake Sentry Dashboard is listed for E-Z-GO TXT 1996+ (choose the TXT option). It installs on the factory stock body and does not require a DoubleTake Phoenix, Phantom, or Factory Style body kit. It comes with a black base or a sand base, and you can see every Sentry dash and add-on in our DoubleTake Dashboards collection.

Not sure of your year? Check the serial number plate, which on the TXT is on the driver-side mid-frame rail.

Gauges, Indicators, and Controller Mounts

Your dashboard serves as the central control hub for your golf cart. Upgrading your dash offers an ideal opportunity to clean up your wiring and integrate helpful gauges and performance monitors:

• Battery Meters and Switches: If you want a battery meter, 12V outlet or extra light switch, pick a dash with room for it. The EZGO TXT Elite Dash (1994.5–2013) has open space designed for add-on switches and meters.
• Speed & Regeneration Knobs: If your cart runs an Alltrax XCT controller, the Performance Knob Dash Mount Panel XCT Speed Regen provides a factory-clean mounting solution for on-the-fly drive mode adjustments.

Matching Accessories for a Cohesive Interior

A customized dashboard looks best when paired with coordinated interior upgrades across the rest of the front cabin.

• Steering Wheels: Swap the standard wheel for a sport design. The Lugana Steering Wheel, Black, E-Z-Go Hub ($94.95) is built for the E-Z-GO hub and pairs well with a black or carbon fiber dash.
• Steering Column Trim: The Stainless Steel Steering Column Cover for E-Z-GO Medalist/TXT ($47.95) dresses up the column between the wheel and the dash.

Common Questions About EZGO TXT Dashboards

Will an aftermarket dash fit my stock EZGO TXT body?

Yes, as long as you match the model year. The dashes in this guide are built for the factory TXT body; the DoubleTake Sentry, for instance, installs on the stock body without a body kit conversion. Pre-2014 dashes (listed as 94-13, 96-13 or 2013 & Down) and 2014+ dashes are sold as separate parts, so order the one listed for your year. The Sentry is listed for TXT 1996+.

How do locking glove boxes secure valuables on a golf cart?

The locking dashes in this guide ship with keys. The DoubleTake Sentry includes two keys for its locking center console, and the Regal Burl 2014+ panel has two locking compartments with push-button latches. They give you a place to lock up your phone, wallet, keys and registration when you step away from the cart at the clubhouse, a campsite or a community lot.

Is an aftermarket dashboard easy to install at home?

Yes, for most owners. The TXT dashes we carry are designed to install with standard hand tools, and most include their mounting hardware; the Regal Burl 2014+ panel, for example, mounts over the existing dash with no modifications. Plan extra time if you are transferring a key switch, gauges or a radio. Be sure to review the product instructions, factory hardware requirements, and any wiring or key-switch transfer steps before starting the job.
