Gas Gauge Question

Hello.
I saw a Clack Cat Custom Ad and sent them a message. But I wanted to know what you guys think about a custom mod I thought up.

Personaly, I dont care about having 1/2 a tank of gas, or 3/4 or 7/8s a tank of gas.
I would rather have my gas gauge read out in gallons. IE: Have the 1/2 3/4 5/8 marks relined to show 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 gallons, well 13 would be F and 0 would be E. Anyone ever hear of anyone doing that?
If its too small, I could live with 1 3 5 7 9 11 with 13 being F
I sent a email to Black Cat asking if they can do one and how much it would cost.

So has anyone ever heard of anyone having that done? Is there other custom places that could/would do that?

Sent you an email, but in case anyone else was interested. It would be no problem to customize the fuel gauge on our gauge face. We would however, have to recalibrate the hash marks on the fuel gauge to read the numbers. There would not enough room to put all 13 numbers, as they would be very small and probably unreadable. We could do every other 1, 3, 5 etc. Cost to redesign/customize the fuel gauge would be $35 plus the cost of the gauge face.
Thanks.
