Converting Digital Dash to Analog????

Is is possible to convert a Trans Am GTA Digital Dash to an Analog "Gauges" Version? IF you can, how complex is it in terms of the wiring if at all? I ask because if I find the "right car" and it has the digital dash, I will surely want to switch it out to analog as I do not care for the digital stuff.

Any helpful information on this would be appreciated!

Thanks

The analog stuff is horribly innacurate.I guarantee you the digital stuff,simply because of its design, is far more accurate.The only real variable is the accuracy of the sensors on the engine.With the analog stuff you have needle placemant accuaracy & sweep mechanism errors & all kinds of stuff piling up.Not to mention just really cheap crappy factory gauges.Stick with the digital,they are also worth alot more.
