Does the head unit have Android Auto? If so, you might be able to run Torque Pro , and get virtual gauges on the HU screen.
EDIT: I didn't realize it requires a rooted phone. HERE is an article on it if you're interested (or for anyone else who may be).

I have Torque on my head right now. It works fine with either of my readers. I also have car dr pro. Both work well with the direct USB connection.

Doh! I forgot the head unit *runs* Android, so of COURSE you can use Torque.

JP I went and drove it this weekend. It's like a new damn truck. Slight whine in the PS, but so so common in the earlier trucks. I just couldn't bring myself to buy it because of the standard trans. All that years luxury, lost to a floor shifter.

I like lil Red, so I don't need another truck. In fact I need to get rid of one of the vehicles. I guess I'll just keep Red and not worry about another pretty face. lol

Lil’Red will be as good as a new truck with the extra goodies you’ve added!-
We may end up with another 10 gen. in the family... buddy of mine at work is selling his 99- extended cab- my Dad is thinking about buying it for my nephew..
we’ll see...

I want a 96 EB bronco with a 5.8 bad enough to let my red truck go. Lol

How many vehicles do you have now?

I have 6 in the yard, counting my sons Subaru. I have the 2 98 F150's, my Mustang, Fusion, and a motorhome (Chevy, I know but the wife wanted it), and a boat. I had to take the boat up to my buddies to store it. The motorhome is down in the holding yard. I'm car poor for parking.
