You could even make the graphics looks like that old screen.
And since you have the data you could replace the fuel bar and temp bar with higher resolution bars on your screen. Maybe make it easily removable if the user has to access the original lcd for some reason.



Just cover this right up and put a much more useful display there.
I would definitely buy one.

with a display like this maybe?

that would be the definition of OEM plus. and unobtrusive upgrade.
Thanks for this suggestion! I really like that idea.

370 gauge clusters are expensive at more than $220 Canadian. I can get a G37 cluster for about $50 at the local scrap yard... I guess that is the "Z tax"

To start, I like the idea of something external (that doesn't look like an add-on) that I can use to test/prove the durability of the hardware and software in different operating conditions. If something does fail or act weird, it is an easy replacement.

Once the durability is proven, I will buy a 370 cluster and see how this could work.
If you have any other suggestions, please keep them coming
