The NEC does not address this situation. Your local utilities may have rules on this. Use common sense. You would not want any electrical device near a gas meter that could leak. Just do not put one close to a gas meter and you know you will be safe. If you have an outdoor gas furnace and want to install a GFCI near it just make sure to install it as far from the gas meter as possible.
There will be 'stop taps' for each of the services located somewhere in the premises. The water stop tap is usually just inside the front door - under the floorboards.

It is different in different states. You are dealing with 2 separate codes here. HVAC & Electric codes. Contact both your electrical inspector and whoever inspects gas HVAC for a definite answer.

taillightsNo that shouldn't affect anything in the dash or insrtument panel. I have not installed them myself, but i have had friends that have and they never said anything. I think its pretty much just a "bolt on, no hassels" kind of thing!!

As modern gas is often less odourous than it used to be, you need special equipment to detect it. However, if you have a gas meter, turn off all your gas appliances and see if the meter is still registering consumption. Your best advice would be to call out a service engineer. __ DO NOT TURN ANYTHING ELECTRICAL ON OR OFF UNTIL YOU HAVE SWITCHED OF THE GAS AT EITHER THE MAINS OR THE CYLINDER HEAD.
The usage is measured by gas and electricity meters. A gas meter measures the volume of gas passing through. An electricity meter is an energy meter which measures the kilowatt-hours use.
