Hey,
I just have a standard VDO Boost gauge i'm trying to get hooked up and I know where to tape to get the reading and stuff but where should i connect my wires from my gauge to the battery so I can have light when i drive at night? Thanks everyone emoji

You can connect it to the cigarette lighter light, but i got mine connected to the cruise control light connection. So when i turn on my lights, the gauge comes on also.

Take your center console out. Look at the bottom of the cig lighter and you will see wires going to the bulb. There are 2. One is a black ground and the other is the one that you use. I think it's blue w/ a white stripe.
