[RESOLVED] 3 gauges, Fuses or no fuses?

[GSTspyder97]

I'm about to install 3 pillar gauges for my 2g, however, the instructions that came with it are slightly vague on the constant power. The instructions show a diagram of the wires going to the battery with no fuse.

Am I just an electrical idiot that should KNOW to hook them into some other constant power such as the radio power so they have a fuse? Or can I actually hook the constant power of the 3 gauges STRAIGHT to the positive terminal on the battery with no fuses?

Also, I read in another forum that one should NOT wire all 3 gauges to the same power source like the radio or cigarette lighter, anyone have a 2nd opinion on that?

pls help >_<

Guessing the Ebay Glow Shift ones? Since he mentioned constant power, check out the link below to the post of how another person installed it, use the search function next time

thanks for the link ^^

Okay, yeah, >< I guess I should have used the keyword 'glowshift' in my forum searches because I couldn't find anything about constant power with the other gauge install forums. I didn't think the forums would be so specific so I used generic terminology in my searches.

I got the white glowshift gauges because they match my aftermarket gauge cluster already.

Thanks for the speedy reply guys ^^ back to installing for me!
