Default RE: a-pillar gauges

Well I just got my gauges and am heading to get the 1/4 T-fittings and was just wondering exactly how I hook the power source up to the fuse box? Thanks

Well correct me if i'm wrong but im sure theres just 2 wires....The positive and the ground, The positive you only want to send power to when the car is started so you would hook the wire to a fuse that only triggers when the car starts (i.e. Windshield Wipers, Power Windows, Sunroof etc.) The way I would do it is Take out one of the fuses you chose and stick the power wire from the gauges into the hole then plug in the fuse.(make sure you hide all of your wires so nothing gets pulled out!) Then simply find a good ground and you should have power when you start your car!

I'm sure there are plenty of other ways to do this but this is how i would do it and its easy!

If you can give me the purposes of the wires, I can tell you were to run them.

For example:

You'll probably have a +12v
Maybe 2 wires to the sender
and of course, a ground

so if you have that much info, I'll help from there.

Well, the gauges came with about 3 feet of wiring so i'll have to extend all that[:@] But, my dad figured out pretty much where everything goes, and I was just wondering the size of the hose where the oil runs (above the filter). The pressure unit uses 1/8 NTP fitting so I bought some t-fittings and am hoping the oil line is the same! Thanks My exhaust is going on tomorrow so im not sure if I'll be intalling this as well yet.

Well i got my exhaust and headers installed and love it! Though I cant hear the ws2 Anyways, before I install the gauges I was wondering if anyone knows the oil line size. The pressure unit and temp. sender are all 1/8 NTP and I bought some brass t-fittings and am hoping its all the same. Thanks!
