Hi I see in my wideband instructions it tells me to wire the gauge to a headlight power switch. It says to NOT use the dimmer switch wire. Could someone give me an idea of the easiest wire to use for this?

Thanks!
 
providing this is only to light up the gauge, to be honest I used the cig lighter light power suply. it serves the same purpose. some may not like to do this but I havnt had any problems after 2 years of running my boost gauge. for the main power supply this diagram came from roadraceengineering.com got it?:thumb: hope I could help.

Thanks for the reply. This is not to power the gauge but to have it "dim" at night when the headlights are switched on. It says to use a wire that supplies power to the headlights but to not use a dimmer switch.
