i am putting in autometer gauges in my truck and need help with wiring. could someone give me some instructions of how they wired the gauges to the truck and also some pics. i was also wondering where i was supposed to put the ignition wires and the sender wires, or if i was just supposed to fuse them together. i am kinda in the dark here as i have no prior experience and i dont wanna screw up my investment. by the way, i have electrical gas gauge, tach, water temp, and voltmeter. i dont know if you need to know that or not.

thanks

ray

forgot to ask this, what did you guys do about turn signal lights. i got a custom faceplate made, but the signal lights are the same size so led's are not possible.

Are these new gauges? If so they should have wiring diagrams with them.
