Default Cobalt Gauge Install

I see our search function has not improved much during my two month absence.
Has anyone posted good instructions on installing the A/F and Boost gauges yet?
I didnt get mine put in while I was home and I definitely have to get it done soon.

I am in Japan and the parts are in FL. All that I can tell you for sure is that these are the two item descriptions I received when I ordered them from Lethal Performance.

Cobalt A/F Kit
Cobalt Mechanical Boost -30/+30

Thanks for that link. Those are the instructions that come with them though and I didnt find them very helpful for the two gauges that I have. I was looking for the step-by-step 'How To Guides' like TacoBill has created and posted on this site. The supplied instructions are ok if you know a lot about the car an its electronics systems. For me, when it comes to splicing wires, I will wait for someone to post some actual photos of the exact wire that I need to cut. I saved that link you sent though and will reference it when needed. Thank you!
