Where is the best place to tap into? While doing some reading, the cigarette lighter and radio were two that kept coming up. Are these options still recommended?

Cigarette lighter and radio are just "convienent". A better place is the inside fusebox power and the "best" place would be on the battery terminals themselves.

Sorry to bring this up, I finally got around to installing this gauge. However, Im having a slight issue.... Im not getting a reading. I have the "power" wire mated to the ignition connector on the gauge and the lighter. The ground, well, grounded heh
Anyway, on a 1g, what is the wire color/pattern of the lighter source that needs to be tapped? I believe I may have it with the wrong one (blue/white stripe)
