J2Racing Member 70 Member For: 18y 2m 12d Posted 10/08/07 04:54 AM Share Posted 10/08/07 04:54 AM I know this is deviating very slightly off topic, but most people have said the easiest way to get power to light up the boost gauge is to run it off the traction control switch, so that when you flick the lights on, on comes the lights on the boost gauge, one problem, I got the premium sound with dual climate control, the traction control switch is waaay down just above the tissue box holder.Would it be easier for me to wire it to the foglamp switch, which is still in its normal location?any help would be appreciated guys Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/37125-boost-gauge-installation/#findComment-563056 Share on other sites More sharing options...

What ever one you think will be easiest for you to reach you should go with. I have mine wired to the t/c switch but that's because I found it easier to go go with th t/c switch.
