Banks boost gauge

Got the banks boost and exhaust temp gauge. Where do I splice in the power wire for the lights? I'm assuming in the switch for the regular dash lights can anyone tell me the wire I'm looking for or where it should go? 93 f250 7.3idi

I would try searching online for a wiring diagram for your model year.

All you need is a test light or meter to find switched power for lights all the time, or when the lights are on.

I ran my coolant temperature, pyrometer and vacuum gauges to 12 VDC IGNITION. Use an ATO fuse tap. You can get them cheaper on Amazon.

If it's an incandescent lamp in the gauge, you may want to splice into one of the dash lights (probably the one illuminating the headlight and wiper switches). Then the gauge lamp will be controlled and dimmable by the dash light intensity switch.
