I'd really like to find something like this too, but I don't know if such a
beast exists.  I kind of doubt it.  It's technically illegal to mess with
your speedometer, but it's one of those things that nobody will care about
in an older VW bus.  :)

You can get oil pressure and temperature gauges in 2-1/16".  Can't fit them
in the dash without custom work.  There is tons of information on this in
the archives, as it has been discussed on this list many times.
