Ok, i just order my volt gauge this afternoon. I am not worried because its an esay gauge to setup.. however where is the hole in the firewall that i need to run the wire through? If anyone has a picture of where it is and a little step by step on how to get there it would be awesome.
Thanks guys. -Chris. -------------------- "Drive Well...

Ok, i'll figure it out. So here it goes now that i think i have this down;
yellow wire goes to my positive wire on my radio. (with a 3amp fuse installed in the line) red wire goes to the positive wire on my cig liter. black wire gets grounded. correct? btw; my gauge just showed up at my door. ha. -------------------- "Drive Well...
