Just get run it to your fusepanel. Its the #5 location. The add a circuits work well for this. Nice clean install and you don't cut or splice any factory wiring.

The pic above is what I was talking about. They work great and allow for a neat install. No cutting into the factory wiring. Then you don't need to worry about using the right wire, you just do it from the fuse panel.

just run the gauge light power to the dimmer wire on the car. all it does is reduce the voltage and run a dimmer light.

You can still dim them if you run them to the fuse panel. You just use the dimmer fuse location.

They are bright if they are at full power. I dim mine a bit too.
