Defi control unit hookup

So I'm trying to hook up some Defi gauges in my FD, but I'm a mess when it comes to electrical stuff . According to the online manual, all I need to do is hook up the Defi controller unit and the rest is pretty much plug n play. Does anyone else who has Defi gauges want to tell me what wires they used to hook up the unit? There's 4 wires: constant power source, ignition, illumination, and ground. Pics would also be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Yes if you have the controller unit then all sensors coming from the engine bay hook up to the back of it. Then you should have wire hook ups that go directly from the gauges to the controller unit that are PNP. I can snap some photos of mine later this morning when I get to work if that helps.

Thanks. I know how hooking up the sensors go, but I just don't know what wires from the car to hook up to the control unit
