12v for gauge lights(boost, egt)?

[Epifool]

Ok, heres the 32¢ question- can somebody tell me a specific wire to tap for my add on gauge lights, and egt ? Im just tryin to avoid hackin up my underdash any more than it was when i got it. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

I know on my dsm I taped into the line for the rest of the lights so it was dim-able. Don't power the gauge off that line. Use the radio or cigaret lighter, or add another fuse to the box and run a line.

They have new fuses that run a line out of them. I'm not sure if someone here showed them.

Use the radio Accessory wire, or the main accessory wire coming from the ignition column. Either will show +12v when the key is on and in the acc position.Just test them with a test light.

That is very cool, I had never seen one of those before!

i have used that.
got it from autozone.
the nice part is that you can still
keep the fuse box cover on.
it does not stick out.
