I have some of those indiglow gauges. And Im just finishing up. Everything is ready to be mounted. Ive zip tied the little transformer box under my dash. And the last step it says something like "strip the red and black wires from the transformer, Ground the black one at the nearest area. And Tie the red one in to the parking light."

can someone tell me where they tied their little red wire in to? picture would be great.

thanks.

I believe the brown wire behind the radio is for the parking lights, but it doesn't dim. I hooked my pod into that one for lighting

I got it guys. I just used my remote wire for my amp and h.u.

It actually looks pretty cool. Everything on my dash lights up at the exact same time. Thanks though.

you should wire it into the little light in the cubby under your radio. that is wired in to the headlights, and will dim. looks a lot better.

Ohhh yeah I know what you are talking about. I saw that today. Alright. I will check it out tonight. And see if I like it or not. If not I will switch it over. I think my little control thing has a dimmer switch built in to it. but yeah it would be more helpful if I only had one switch. thanks.

Everything is up. But I'm not as impressed as I thought I originally would be. I think in a few months I will change to the reverse halo gauges. Here are the pictures anyways.

Sorry little late on this, but I have been gone for 4 days. When I had my Alero which had speedhut gauges I wired them into the cubby hole light like everyone else has said.
