You can add cruise. My Civic didn't have it either, but my dad installed an aftermarket cruise when he owned it before me. I think it was $300-400.
Ultragauge will work with it. I personally wouldn't buy a SGII for it. SGII is only worth it for hybrids and other vehicles that make use of the X-gauges.
As darcane and Pale have said, it'll get the same MPG as the DX and LX. Just remember that most of the Civics on here are manual. With your mainly highway driving, 35MPG should be doable stock.

Awesome! I didn't know it would be that easy to add a tach, I will most certainly be doing the swap, maybe I'll do some LED mods if possible to make the cluster green as the car itself is green and would look awesome. The cruise isn't that important so for 400 I think I'll wait a couple months before adding it. As for the ultragauge, I mainly want it for the instant MPG stuff. Also, tbh, I just think it looks 'cool'.
As for basic mods, what are some of the easy ones for this model? I'm kind of curious what can be done to increase MPG right off the bat.
