Saleen boost guage wiring HELP-image-3631990945.jpg

Need help trying to figure out how to wire into existing cluster illumination, my trucks not supercharged or boosted but really liked the look just looking for some insight to wire it so it looks like it belongs

If you google "Saleen gauge pod instructions" the directions should come up. I know there is a special wire harness to hook it to the dash lights. I think the one for the mustangs should work also

I mean you could tie them into the radio fuse with a fuse jumper. The lights would burn all the time tho... But only while the key is on. Better than cutting into any harnesses. Other than that you need to find out what controls the dash lights in the fuse box, i couldnt find it so i just ran everything off the radio because i was adding a gps power, guages and other things.

Heres the radio/AUX one i used for my guages power with the jumper in it

Man I wish I could afford to charge it, I was set till the ambulance company I worked for came in 4 months ago and said see ya. So being without full time work has definitely took me a mile back....
