AEM CD-5 Carbon Digital Dash Display – 5" Motorsports Display

The AEM CD-5 Carbon Digital Dash Display is a compact 5-inch motorsports display designed for custom Subaru WRX/STI builds, track cars, swap cars, and aftermarket ECU applications. It gives the driver clean visibility of critical data in a smaller display package, making it a strong option for tighter interiors or builds where a lower-profile digital dash is preferred.

For Subaru owners who want AEM CD-Series functionality without the larger CD-7 screen, the CD-5 delivers a clean, professional cockpit upgrade with built-in controls and flexible CAN data support.
