No aftermarket replacements. You could possibly retrofit something like ScanGauge - Trip Computer + Digitial Gauges + ScanTools or parts from dakota digital or racepak. If yours has faded out to not being lit, there is a resistor on the board that breaks loose and a few minutes of removing it and resoldering will repair it. It's a pretty easy fix, had to do mine a year or so ago.
