Wiring up gauge lamps? simple question...WHERE?
I couldnt find a tech forum based on electricity in our cards, so mods, put it where you please :-).
I have a simple question.
Where can I hook the postivie side to my gauge lights(aftermarket gauges) so lights will light up when i turn on my head lights?
Thanks,

you can tap in to the wiring for the cig lighter. do a search for boost guase install that is where I found it. the wiring will work for all guages. good luck

I have mine tapped into the dimmer switch on the dash cuz it was closer to my the tri gauge pillar pod. My gauges light up and activate from when i turn on the parking lights.

The wires at the switch work but if your guages are like mine they have 2 levels of light and you will not get the dimmer function unless you get the correct wires connected to make that work. Good luck
