I have the AC Autotechnic S7 gauges and I want to install them myself because the shops here in N.Y. want $100.00 to install them. :rolleyes: I know how to take the dash apart and install them, I just don't know how to hook up the indiglow wiring. Any diagrams? My gauges below.

be like it is
hook the power up to the headlight fuse in the fuse box. i think thats what we did in my friends truck. or if it has a separate acc wire, hook the power into the ignition fuse and the acc into the headlight fuse so they turn on with the lights. make sure the needles clear the faces. they tend to bubble up and catch the needles. my buddy has his stuck at 70mph for a couple days... hot lookin gauges though--how much were they, if you dont mind me asking. i assume theres gonna be pics when youre finished...?

Thanx man. I don't remember what I paid for them. Around $70.00 I think. I got them on Ebay a while ago but they've been sittin' in my closet for the longest. Yeah, pics will be up.

Met up with Blacknight this Saturday and we installed the gauges. I forgot to bring my camera so I don't have any pics while we were installing. Took some pics today. Check 'em out.
