Hey guys, I have searched and came up with 2 options for wiring my a pillar guages. I just spliced my AEM wideband into a powersource that goes on with the ignition, but I need to decide where to splice the light bulb wiring for my mechanical boost, oil pressure, and EGT. I know most people splice into the wiring for the headlamp switch so that the guage lamps turn on with the running lights, but I think I want to splice them into the stock dimmer. I have heard of some people doing it that way, but the wires running from the wiring harness to the stock dimmer are such a high guage (small wire) that I am afraid they won't be able to handle the voltage needed to run all 3 guages lamps?!?! Anyone have any opinions on that!?!? I just want my guage bulbs to be as bright as possible, but I would also like to have the option of dimming them. I just don't want to sacrifice the total light output of the bulb by splicing off such a small wire. The wires coming out of the headlamp switch on the left of the steering column are much bigger (14 guage?).
Anyways, let me know what you guys have done, and if you think that I will or will not be sacrificing light output by using the stock dimmer.
Thanks,
Jeff
