Need to find +12v line connected to headlight switch
Hey guys, so I wiring up my 2 gauges to get ready for the big install I am currently looking for a +12V line that is switched by the headlight switch. Basically, I want the lights in the 2 pods to come on like the bulbs do behind the gauges and behind the radio. Anybody have any idea what wire I am looking for?

the fat grey wire may be used as well. go to americanmuscle, click on the guage, then at the bottom theres a how-to link for install. i used the fat grey wire and it works fine. i also didn't solder the ground to that bar like they showed, why anyone would do that i don't know. theres plenty of bolts in there you can ground to i forgot which i used but it doesnt take a genius to find a good ground.
btw. all i did to tap the grey wire was literally strip the power wire for the guages, wrap it around the prong that the grey wire goes to, and plugged it back in. the force of the connectors keeps the wire from going anywhere.
