The studs coming out of the back of the gauges are actually the electrical connections. In the stock gauge cluster housing, nuts go on those which make contact with the flexible printed circuit when they're attached. You'll notice that white plastic insulator piece keeps the studs from shorting to the housing.

Still the same answer, the studs are the electrical connections.
