I recently purchased some indigo dials, and have them all in place in the instrument cluster. The needles move, and everything is good. Except for one thing; which wire do I connect my red power wire to? There are 3 wiring harnesses that fit in to the back of the instrument cluster, one with 10 wires, one with 12 wires, and one with 16 wires. I've got the metal firewall right behind the instrument cluster, so that'll ground, but which wire is the instrument cluster lights? There's so many to pick from and I really think I might cry.

Please help!

Thanks,

Andy.

splice into the cigarette lighter. you will have to take the center councle out and what not to get at it but its beter than trying to go into the actual guage harness

What are the wiring colours on the cigarette lighter, and which one do I want to splice? And won't that mean the dials are on all the time, rather than just when I turn the sidelights on?

Thanks,

Andy.

if you want them on only when you turn your lights on then splice it into the illumination wire on your radio. if you have an after market deck its normally orange (i know it is on kenwood). you will have to check depending on your deck but that should do the trick.

That was absolutely spot on - I wired it to the earth and illumination wires, and it's perfect. Thank you so much for your help.

You could have wired it to a switch too

hey no problem, and mkernz yeah you can do that but then you have to worry about a fuse and wire the switch its just a pain then you have to turn it on. ^^ that way you just have to turn your lights on like normal.
