Just got myself a set of white face gauges which came with no directions. They do seem easy enough to install. I plan to drill a hole in the huge tubular bar for the ground and I wanna splice the positive into the headlight wire so they only come on when the headlights are on, just unsure the colour of the wire in the cluster. Anyone know? The set comes with an on/off switch so I wonder if maybe I would just be better sending the positive into the fuse box??

Car is a 96 GT.....
