I just got this boost gauge but i'm not exactly sure where to wire this all up. It has 4 different wires and i'm not sure where they all should go except for the ground. If it was a simple hook up with only 2 wires like autometer I'd get it, but i'm a bit confused on this. Here are some diagrams it came with:

I #THINK# that you should connect the white wire to a power source such as your radio power wire, or some other accessory power source. And the amber should be connected to the power source for your head lights. This way during the day the white wire will draw power from the accessory source then at night when you turn on the headlights it will draw power from both the headlights and the accessory. Trial and error.

Thanks, i'll give that a try. Any other takes on this?
 
Thats the same diagram from my GlowShift gauge i bought off ebay. Smoke lens series, 7 color. If i remember right the white and amber, get hooked into your dimmer switch(can be hooked elsewhere, but this gives you the ability to dim the gauge). The red one gets hooked into a constant 12v power source, so it remembers your color setting. The black one I grounded to the chassis.
