Alright, any advice on how to remove the black plastic cover above the needle. How to safetly remove it?

Where should I tap my power from? Is there another good place to tap power from

What color is the parking light fuse?

Thanks in advance

Leon

dont remove the needles as it will make your life harder. The holes in the center of the indiglo gauges should be big enough that you could slide the needle through them and get the IG Gauge to slide over the black circle that the needle is connected to. (hope that made sense) The needles are pretty flexible so you could bend them upwards without hurting them (not too much now). As for the power sournce? i found a bolt near the pedals that was connected the metal for the ground. And got my power from the green wire in the dimmer, ^as circled above in the picture. good luck!

Edit: I used solder&Electric tape to splice the wires, i would suggest it so they dont come apart and you gotta do it over again

what do you mean by flexible? you can actually bend the needle? or do u mean moving it up like 10 mph and putting it back down.

oh and your gona want to hit the right wire in the dimmer, one of those wires is a fluctuating 12v, and ur glo guagues wont work with fluctuating 12v. you need to hit the wire that turns ur testlight on when u turn ur headlights on.
