Setting fuel gauge to empty

Setting fuel gauge to empty
Hi guys, I'm new here and would appreciate some help.
My brother often borrows my car (03 WRX )and he never never fill up the tank after that.
And I'm getting pissed. The only thing that stops him from taking my car is when he sees that it has no petrol left. So is there any way I can tweak the gauge to show its permanently empty? A DIY step by step guide would be great.

I am sure there is a way of adding a "hidden switch" connected to the signal line to the dash, but if he starts the car and sees the petrol light on, if he really wants to drive the car then he will probably go to a petrol station anyway and realise when it takes 3 quid to fill it but the light stays on!
Keep the keys with you at all times, thats the best bet.
