interior mods? I like my vents and I don't want to play with the air bag location. Any digital thing that could go ? And why can't some smart guy hack into the info LEDs?

Default I had the same feeling as you about the vents; but I just replaced the center vent

with a piece of plastic, painted it flat black and stuck a 52mm gauge in there. Doesn't look as out of place as I originally thought it would. IMO. Sorry, no pix yet.

Default there's a bunch here:

the Mach HUD (Head Up Display) may be what you're after. It displays the info on to your windshield - thus your vents aren't touched. Look here and then scroll down (10th down)...:<ul><li><a href="http://www.europeanspeed.com/gauge.htm">http://www.europeanspeed.com/gauge.htm</a</li></ul>
