defi link controller ?
i was wondering where did everyone that has the defi link controller, connect the ignition wire? my gauges all turn on (illumination works) and also 12v to battery and ground are grounded correctly, but none of the gauges function nor the controller when depressing the buttons... i'm probably overlooking a small mistake in my connection.

theres a 12v ignition source near the kick panel on driver's side, thats mounted on the firewall. use a spade plug to tap the power source. Do your gauges go through the opening sequence? if you have defi BF gauges, they go into the meter link 2, if you have regular defi link gauges they go into meter link 1

the illumination wire just serves as a dimmer, so when you turn on your headlights the gauges will dim. i wouldn't tap into any wires that you don't have to, connect your 12v ignition source to the one i told you about, its right near your feet, you'll need a spade plug to connect into it. do your gauges work (not light up but are they actually functional)?

Could one of you guys who have the Defi gauges take pictures and post them? Both day and night; i.e. with car lights turn on and off?
I'm considering getting these, but not sure how they would look. Thx!

if you think you have everything right and you can only see the gauges with lights on, swap the output for the gauges on the back.
youll have two outputs, whichever output the wire is in now, swap it to the other.
I had exactly the same problem and using output 2 fixed it.
