What kind of guage is it? electric?

The bracket is if you were to mount it on a flat surface like your guage cluster. The wires connect to a power/ground for illumination.

No instruction to tell you what each color is for?

The bracket would just hold the guage in the vent.

I have that gauge - install is a pain due to the wires but I eventually figured it out. list the different names on the directions and I'll tell you which one to use.
