If all else fails, there is always the FSM. Mine is a different year so I wouldn't trust it to be the same.

RACE ON!!!

Probe the wires with a test light. Pink or orange may help you.

CFI - have a helms,,,, as you normally state to everyone.... but am at work and trying to layout design.

Guys, sorry for maybe not being long-winded enought. This is for 2 gauges, their lighting, which i want to be on all the time AFTER the car starts. Not looking for constant 12v.

Pink or Orange helps - yea i know to probe, but being old and lazy.... who can blame me at this point...

thanks

I believe orange-at least that goes to the IP cluster-and one things for sure-it only comes on with the ignition-and off with it.

Thanks bud, i imagine that should have no adverse effects on the cluster adding 2 gauge lights to it.

I really doubt it-the amperage is small.
