years ago?) an issue of one of the electronic hobbyist magazines that had
an article on just this sort of setup for the "do-it-yourselfer". When I
recently decided to augment the stock warning lights of my van, I tried to
find the magazine only to be informed that it had been sent to recycling
(by the person who occupies the passenger seat of my Westfalia).

The magazine article you are speaking(perhaps) of was in Popular
Electronics July, 1990.
The digital instuments were supplied by dakota digital
(www.dakotadigital.com).
I was browsing their web site and it seems that they have gone upper scale.
