Question Please Need Help Installing Auto M. Boost Gauge And A/f Gauge

I bought a pair of auto meter ultra lite boost gauge and a/f gauge and a pillar preparing for future mods that include a 4 or 6lb lower and full bassani exhaust. anyway I got the boost gauge to work but i need help with the light. I'm not electronically inclined i know black is ground and white goes to 12v source such as the lighting. I dont know where to connect the thite cable with both gauges. i cant find a power source and dont know where to connect it. On the A/F gauge I read the directions and they are preety much self explanatory but again the white cable that goes to the power source and the purple cable that goes to the pcm signal wire (oxygen sensor) I cant find tham. I'm lost please help.

No one seemed to know when I asked either.
If you pull the panel off of the side of the dash on the drivers side you can get to the back of the light controls. Use a tester to find the wire to the dash lights. (I can look at mine if you like) tap that wire for the lights on the gauges and they will dim with the dash lights.
Can't help with the A/F. I have one here that I'm going to sell as I decided not to mess with the O2 wires and screw up the voltage.
Good luck,

I was born and raised in Tucson and then moved to Phoenix/Scottsdale for about 10 years before moving up to Denver about 3 years ago... I know Yuma well, it's the "Lettuce Growing Capital of the US."
