K.I.T.T. Dashboard - from Knight Rider with David Hasselhoff
Update: Believe it or not, this post about KITT, the car from the Knight Rider TV show, gets a lot of traffic. Here’s a bonus for you fans.
For those who don’t know KITT, it’s the car from the TV show Knight Rider. The original show aired from 1982 to 1986 and starred David Hasselhoff as Michael Knight - a modern day knight crusading against crime with an awesome stead in the form of KITT (the Knight Industries Two Thousand).
The series was revived for the 2008 TV season and, of course, KITT is back. Now it’s the Knight Industries Three Thousand and it’s driven by Michael Knight’s son.
Update to this post: Here is a really good video for you to watch if you want to see K.I.T.T. in action. It’s a tribute video composed of footage from the original Knight Rider show, and shows some good shots of the KITT dashboard. There are quite a few closeups of the Knight Rider dashboard being used. Of course there are action sequences and the Knight Rider sound track.
And here are some shots of the new KITT. These are promo spots for the 2008 Knight Rider show on NBC.
As you know, there’s a new Knight Rider TV Movie coming up. Here’s a picture of the new KITT. Gee, I wonder what the dashboard looks like?
