Ask "Pilch" about this. He's sorting out his fuel gauge in his XC so it reads LPG levels instead. The process that he's going by might help you with your trip computer.

Dunno how your going to do it, the trip computer receives a signal on fuel usage from the ECU, in particular the injector pulses and throttle position.
