Temp gauge not right on 00 TA. Ideas??

Just wondering if there is a sensor or something to make the temp gauge work correctly on my 2000 TA? I thought maybe there would be an aftermarket sensor that would make the gauge read right rather than cold normal and hot.

The stock guage actually reads in increments. Its a bit better than cold, warm and hot. Stock it would ride around 210. W/cooler t-stat and fans kicking on earlier it now rides 190-ish. When the idiots that were flushing my coolant system weren't doing it right and it started overheating, it would rise with that and level off etc.
