thats something i was thinking about to , if your talking about replacing the head unit  then the readings on dash will go, i think , i keep my mpg up all the time , i was thinking of an Alpine INE-W928R . but would hate to lose the dash readings ...

You'll still have them on the dash but won't be able to reset them (as that's done through the headunit). You can extend the wiring harness to the glovebox and it just the mid unit into there to control the counters, etc).
