Perhaps you can get an OBD2 bluetooth reader, like a ELM 327. And software, and a comptuer, or cell phone, android, That can view the data, the, TEMP , tack and possible speed meter data, could be their, Or try a GPS for speed, As for the Gas gauge, not sure, perhaps the OBD2 software can inform you of Gas used per mile, and you can know when your low. Anyway up on Ebay the OBD2 ELM bluetooth scanner and , software like, ScanmasterELM can replace most of your gauges .
