You can easily extract it from one of the .cab files - probably on CD1 but I'm not sure which one.  .cab files are just glorified .zip files and there aren't that many of them.

yup look for gauges.cab I believe. The alternative would be to download one of the replacement GPSes here, or by some stroke of luck find a panel with it included.

You're looking on the CDs that came with the game, right?

If I remember correctly the gauge should be in Aircraft.cab or FS2002.cab on CD-1. If I'm wrong there aren't that many CAB files to look through. You can open CAB files with WinZip. I haven't tried other similar utilities but imagine they work in much the same way. When you find gps.gau extract it in the usual way & paste it into FS2002\Gauges. Overwrite the existing file when prompted.
