Installing Defi gauges...
Okay, first off I am totally stupid when it comes to electrical stuff and wiring....so, with that said...I am installing the control unit for my Defi gauges and there are four wires coming out of it. One red (power), black (ground), orange (ignition) and white (lights).
Okay, so where do I splice these wires in? Are there some wires in the steering column that will work? Please help!!

Okay, so how do I know which wires behind the stereo connect to which wires on the control box? Will they be the same color? I dont really want to fry my ****!

for power:
You would probably want to create a circuit fresh from the battery using a fuse (makeshift fuse cover) and then wire the power in from there, that way you could hook everything up in Parralel and use the same Voltage on everything (I could do the calculations for the kind of fuse you would need but I would need the size of the Voltage you are looking for to power those...as for the ignition part....no idea here
