handy with a soldering iron? dick smith sells a circuit kit to make your own lpg gauge. don't know if you could work it with the stock guage. hope so, good luck.

no part number, i just remember seeing it there when my bro was looking for a kit to make a car amplifier or some shit.
pretty basic.
but it'd be cool to make it work witht he stock guage, cause next step would be to make it switchable when i flip between petrol and gas, as my gas guage just crapped itself

found it on dse works out too expensive chaper to buy a lpg gauge from autobarn
found out the stock gauge is 17 ohm full 120 ohm empty so its totally not compattable with a lpg sender thats 0 empty and 90 full
ordered a 2 5/8 fuel gauge this morning $55 so not too bad i guess
