Power for guages?

[scubabri]

Any suggestions where I can run power to my nifty harbor freight boost guage?

If you are looking to power the light,then a fuse tap connected to fuse #14 (dash lights)in the drivers side end of the dash will let you dim it like the gauge lights.

I've looked for a "fuse tap" in a lot of places and don't find them. Where do you get them?

The wires to the radio are a convenient place to get dash light and/or switched power. If you want to tap the fuse box, I have used these Buss Add-A-Fuse gizmos. They work very well and allow you a dedicated fuse for what you are adding. Most of the chain auto parts stores have them, you just have to look. They are in the fuse section. Typically the counter guys will not know what you are looking for, so don't even ask - just search the fuse racks for them.

I have purchased them from NAPA in the past.

I used the CD player wiring for both lights and power since I removed my cd player for an ipod adapter and to make a spot to mount my digital gauges:

Those digital displays are nice where did you get the parts for that set up?

Thanks

That looks awesome! I wonder if they would fit and look that good in the cassette player location in a 1994. I want/need the gauges but dont like the pillar mount and not much else place to put'em.

I can measure 'em for ya, but that's about all I've got to offer....
