Wiring up dash cluster for 1950 F-2

I'm no genius to be sure! I'm redoing the dash in my F-2, someone else had put the instruments from the doner vehical that the engine came from. It's a 12V negative ground system and I'm wanting to go back as original as I can, I know I can get resistors to make the gauges work with 12V but how do I compensate for a negative ground? Last thing I need is to burn it too the ground from stupidity! Any help will be apperciated. Sorru for my bad spelling!

Gauge polarity

polarity of meter / gauge should not be an issue
