I just perused the Bentley circuit diagram, and it'd be trivial to monitor
oil, alternator, coolant level, headlights, and tachometer from the wires
leading TO the cluster and splice into them BEFORE the blue foil, rather
than dealing with the LEDs and such. Hook up seven wires, and I could have a
box that screams whenever any of that stuff goes south. Hmmmm.....
