you mean for the illumination or the hose ?? If it has a light bulb in it there should be two prongs ( +/-) and you tap one (positive) into the wiring for the vent slider illumination or any power source and the other (negative) to a ground. If you are talking about the vac line/hose for the gauge to make it work, read this : http://goapr.com/Audi/support/boost_gauge_pod.pdf

I mean the wire for led lights...they didn't provide any wires like what APR does...
So i want to know should I just go get a black wire and red wire from hardware store and just tie it on the +/- part of the guage??

ya my apr didnt come with wires/harness. I had to use my own wire to hook it up. if there are prongs on the light bulb socket thats what you have to do... Some boost gauges arent illuminated though and would therefore not have these prongs.
