dont have one

[smlzalero]

Peel back the plastic??

My gauges came with the kind of connector where you stick the wire from the gauges in one side and put the wire from the plug in the other and snap it closed and then when you crimp it shut it slices thru both wires, connecting them. Pretty spiffy, ifyou dont have one of them, I would stop at a HW store and pick some up, very handy.

I'm pretty sure it's the one I circled, you can use a test thing where you stick the pointy thing in there and clamp the wire to a power wire and if it lights up, that's your ground...

[Mr_White]

& there is a black stripe on that wire right

[smlzalero]

Ooooo Sorry!!

I dunno, it's the only gray one, tho.

[Mr_White]

The wire that I had to use is a kind of grey color & NO black strip """ red arrow """

The other wire is grey with a black strip that one did'nt work for me

The ground screw is right

Every thing works perfect

[smlzalero]

sorry, that wire looks white in this pic.

Glad everything worked out for ya!

You should post thiat pic ^ in the "How To" for installing these gauges, I looked around for a week and couldn't find anything, that's why I had to use the tester-thingy.

Truth be told I just wired mine int the little light in the center console. its easy, its there. I ran the control for the gauges into the glove box. I will post pics monday as I am at work. ARRGH work on a sunday.
