confidence is the key to success

yellow and black(both units) go to positive and negative (ciggy lighter, light switch wires, radio loom, direct to battery); the green and white wires connect together, so you'll have to run a wire through the bulkhead for this; and the red wires both go to switched live source - ign circuit (radio loom, fuse box etc)

Hey danny, Ive just noticed that you said yellow and black (both units) go to positive and negative. Problem is the boost sensor doesnt have yellow. Only the gauge. Theres only white, red and black on the sensor.

Was puzzled before, now even more so!

Can you help please?

Have you got a multimeter?
If you haven't or you don't know how to use one I suggest you ask a knowledgable mate to come round and give you a hand.
Please don't take offense by me suggesting this but I think some help may be wise, saves you potentially wrecking your gauge.

im sorry guys
I failed!
Got a mate of mine with vastly more electrical knowledge than me to wire this in. Thanks mark.
Think he found it pretty easy. I was hacking my fpr hose at the time.
My camera died and after taking two not very usefull photos.
Im gona get him to explain it to me and post it and hope you can make sense of it.

On a more positive note, I love it its great, very star trek!
Just need it boosting at 20psi or above to get the red lights on. 19 at the moment, so bring on the red lights!!!!

Pod i got from ebay was a really good fit and not a bad match either.

Photos to follow
