How To: Custom Gauge Cluster

17. Using the same processes above, do the same thing with the red (positive) wires.

18. We temporarily used zip ties to help hold our wire harness in place as we were going along.

19. Here we are taping up one of the positive wire solder connections.

20. We had plenty of yellow wire on hand, so we used it for the dash lights, which are the white wires on the gauges. It technically doesn’t matter what color wires you use, as long as you remember what they are for but it is good practice to always use red for positive, black for negative. We also routed the green wire (tach signal).

21. We wrapped electrical tape around our wires, removing the zip ties along the way.

22. Here is what the finished product looks like for most of you. Since we used the Autometer Elite gauges, the ancillary gauges had extra wires for accessory control and data logging.
