I already did the search button, but could not find the answers I need. My UPR glow gauges did not come with instructions. Can someone explain how to wire this thing up? There are 4 plugs on the harness and only 3 from the new white face covers. How do you plug them in? Also, where did you hook the power and the ground wires? This kit comes with blue or green switch with dimmer. Thanks.

OK, I figured out the plug ? I had on the UPR website. But where do you splice the + wire to on the headlight switch abd where do you put the ground? I spliced the + wire to the brown wire that has a small white stripe and the ground on a bolt near the fuse box. The glows are on all the time. I know this is not right.

Hey check out the November issue of 5.0 Mustang. On page 172 there is an article about installing UPR's EL-Glow gauges. There are a series of steps with pics on the wiring of the gauges. Hope this helps you out.

I ordered mine from PartShopper and they didn't come with any directions either. I called and talked to M Raburn and he sent me an e-mail of them. Either call them or PM him and he'll send them to you too.

The big brown wire to the headlight switch assy is the "hot". I was not sure what ground was, and could not find a good non-grounded screw to use, so I just simply soldered the ground wire to the chasis bar that is behind the gauges. Worked like a champ.
