Default Boost Gauge

K so I suck at electrical s***. Can any one help me out here. I have my boost gauge installed but I dont know where to run the electrical wires to for the lighting. One needs to go to the ground while to other goes to a light switch I believe. Can anyone help me out? Where is the light switch?

Does your car have the lights behind the air vent covers? Like the thing to open and close each vent? Thats where I taped into. THe lights come on when I turn on my headlights. Works out nicely.

Thats how I want them to be where they only turn on when I flip the light switch but my gauge is actually on the steering wheel. Any ideas where to tap into on that set up?

I just wired the ground to the frame of the dash and the power to the 75x terminal

you would need to take the kickpanel out on the drivers side. its 4 or 5 bolts. the 75x terminal is under it and is labeled. IMO the best thing to do would be to wire it to your illuminated vents (if you have them) or to a fog switch so that it turns on when you turn your headlights on.
