Default 68 console gauge cluster

I just replaced my cars wiring from front to back Lectric Limited wiring harness and the temp and amps gauges don't work. I have already had some wiring problem with there products. The AIM shows a black / black & white wires going to the amp gauge and a pink / green / black wire going to the temp gauge. I have those colors in the electrical pig tails going to them but I'm concerned about the order of the wires. Does any one have a picture of them or know the proper order from the top to bottom??

Not to my surprise the pig tails had the wires reversed. That makes a total of six issues I had with the three wiring harnesses on my 68.

I'd be happy to list the six problems I had, if you buy from L/L just let me know.
