Power/earth from the mobile phone socket.

Lights on signal from the back of the tail light fuse.

Can't dim these as far as I know. They won't work properly hooked up to a variable voltage.

The instructions say you need constant 12V, Earth, Ignition (or Acc) and tail lights..

Happy that I can get Constant 12V and Earth from the mobile phone socket but where is an easy place to get ignition 12V from (I don't really want to use Acc and have the gauges on with Accesories)?

Get it from the back of the fuse box, from the ignition coil feed.

It is the last connector on the back of the fuse box, the one furthest from the drivers door.

Look for a red wire with a green stripe there are two, it is the thicker one.

Here is a schematic.

Adam that runs from the acc circuit and it doesn't stay active through the starter

position. Some gauges, namely the Autometer electronic type, need a feed that

allows power to stay active through the starter position in order to do a calibration otherwise, you

will get false readings.

Point taken... :spoton:

The gauges we're talking about here work fine from the phone plug.
