Default Gauge install questions..

I am installing autometer Electric fuel pressure and mechanical boost gauge...
my questions are...
1.) Which place did people use for a switched 12volt source (red wire)?
2.) Which wire did you use to hook the white wire (for the lights) to dim them with the panel dimmer switch?


thanks...

I believe this goes into the heated seats circuit under the passenger side dash. I didn't get a chance to install mine yet.
