I've a boost gauge here which has 2 wires for lighting

I take it 1 is daytime an other is night time?

White light an red light

My question is we're do I wire 1 to for night time light?
Do I take a wire from my stalk? If so which wire?

I no I need a switched live for 1 for daytime lighting on the gauge

But for night time I'm unsure

Any fella's help out?

Wouldn't be sure which wire that would be

Does the radio loom wire into the headlights?

If you pull the stereo out dude it should be marked on either the stereo or the lead harness itself! Normally from memory it's a yellow wire!
