A 2 wire com's system should be fine for talking to some small nodes, for example you could have a node in the front that tells you all this information, or you could simply have a node behind the dash board with smaller length wires plugged into each light socket and dial versus running them to where ever the main board is at.

Your BMS project sounds like a very ambitious undertaking !!!
A good resource of info on BMS's is Elithion they are an industry standard, this is a link to their whitepapers on BMS and batteries:
Li-Ion BMS - White Papers their paper on "Spaghetti in my battery" talks about centralized and distributive BMS systems. It might give you some ideas.
