Instrument light power source

Post by littlepolo »

I'm installing an oil pressure gauge and wondering where to take the 12V power for the backlight from. Obviously, this would be switched with side/headlamps. Any suggestions where to best locate the 12V postive?

Light switch or instrument dimmer would be my suggestion.

Thanks, so the rotary switch for the lights? I don't have instrument dimming.
