Anyway to change dashboard gauges?
I want to change the ugly dashboard gauge on my car, instead of that big speed gauge i want 2 one on the left and right like the ones on the newer models, is there any way to change this?

Yes but I don't remember all the details off the top of my head. Search.
You will probably decide that it is not worth it. A lot of coding will be required at the dealer or someone with DAS. I think the face lift cluster is a direct fit but I'm not very sure about that. Also, you may have other issues - for example, depending on your model year the sending unit in the fuel tank may not be compatible. Basically unless you're really want to put a lot into this, forget it.

It can be done. The cluster is in the CAN BUS not the MOST ring. You need a Star DAS & someone who knows what they are doing. There are some tricks in the mileage memory that require to be overcome.
