Thanks Jay.

The odometer displays are for sure a pain.  I had found some matrix
displays that would do the job, and I'd sent them to Marv years ago when I
was going to have him build out my main 6 engine instruments.  Problem is,
I can't find him now. :(

The displays I found require a PIC to drive since they're actually a tiny
dot matrix, but the size was nearly perfect for my needs.  Hopefully I can
find the paperwork on them and order more.
