I need help on installing the wire part from my new guages. Are there any pictures or diagrams that would be helpful to install correctly.

What part exactly?

I've installed/reinstalled my indiglos, and like 5 sets in friend's cars (some subaru, some not) so I feel like I know indiglos well, haha :)

You should only have two wires, a ground and power (should be black and red respectively). I connect the red one to my illumination fuse (you can solder it to the wire in back, or I just take the fuse out, stick the wire in and stick the fuse back in... ghetto, but solid and fail-proof and not permanent either).

That way, the gauges will turn on when your lights are on (headlights or corners, whenever the interior illumination is on basically).

For the ground, get under the dash, and poke the wire around on various bolts and screws. Make sure you have your headlights on. Try to find a bolt that you can touch with the wire that makes the gauges turn on. There's a few under there that are grounded.

Just solder the wire onto a ring connecter, and put that on whatever bolt/nut you found. BINGO! Thats it.

Make sure you're VERY VERY VERY careful with your needles. They can get stuck, pulled out, broken very easily. Double-sided tape will be your friend here.

Hope that helps!
