use one of your switched 12 volt wires that are tied into the light switch. I dont remember which one I used just use a test light.

For my gauge pod, I used the blue/white wire comming out of the dimmer switch. I think it is marked on the switch too. It is the power to the factory dash lights. Double check first, I'm not sure how consistent Ford is with wire colors.

I beleive the blue/white will work as well, but on my '03 i spliced my indigloes to a Brown wire to get it to work with the inteior lights.

The black wire just gets grounded...there's a nice bolt to the right behind the cluster that you can wrap it around and tighten up for a ground.

I spliced into the brown wire as well. Then I soldered the ground wire to that large metal bar behind the dash.
