I have a 65 mustang that was set up for racing by the previous owner. The fuse box is not putting power out. I have a seperate fuse blok I am gonna run for the heater and stuff, but I was wondering if I can slice my instrument lights into my headlight wires so they come on together. My headlights still work just not my dash lights (besides the blinkers). I do not sure if there would be any voltage issues or circuit problems. Thanks..

I think as long as it's a 12V source and you have a working gauge VR:Mustangs Unlimited - The Premier Source for Mustang, Shelby and Cougar Parts and Accessories
on the back of your gauge panel it should cut it down to the correct voltage for the gauges. The dash lights were run through the headlight switch stock.
If you don't have it already, here is the schematics for your car:

print it and use it to trace your wires you will need and tap back into the headlight switch where needed. Also get a $5 test light if you don't have one to verify power at each wire you hook up or need power from.
