Gauge Problems

Ok, my car (1995 240SX stock KA) is finally running mostly ok. I've noticed lately though that all my gauges are a little messed up. The tach has never worked, the odometer quit working about a year ago, the speedometer was off by about 5-7 mph last time I checked, and now the fuel gauge randomly fluctuates from below E to above Full. Also the temp gauge has always showed me at about 75%, now it jumps to H+ alot (this is usually accompanied by the A/C stoppin cold air and blowing super hot air). It feels like it is runnin hotter too, and it stays that way for a while after I stop.

>>Should I change out the whole cluster?

>>Is it possible to get rid of the stock temp gauge completely and install an aftermarket gauge in the cluster?

>>Any other suggestions?

lmk if you need more info. Thanks.
