Wiring help, switched power lead?

Hey guy's,

Doing some wiring.

Can anyone tell me a switched lead that I can tap into for some gauges? Around the drivers side!

Thanks....

Try the dimmer part of the headlight switch. The power wire is a pinkish one with a light blue stripe on the dimmer switch. That way your gauges will dim with your dash. Others have used the cupholder light power wire. Goto www.timskelton.com to see which wire I am talking about. He has a great site with pics

If you do not have an electric brake controller installed, there are a couple circuits from that you could use. I believe there is hot circuit (not sure if it is switched) and an illumination circuit (on dimmer?).
All you need is the brake controller pigtail and plug it in.
