Done exactly this for a Digistat application... used a 3 digit 7-segment LED module from Kingbright and multiplexed the display directly from the PIC needing just three external Resistors... the display cost under $1 in volume. The two LED module (needing only two external Resistors) is even cheaper at under 50 cents in volume. Check with your local Kingbright distributor.
