I bought new gauge faces for my '01 Celica GT-S. We are having problems with the installation. There are two black and red wires that we do not know where it goes to. The instructions were terrible, and nobody in my area knows how to install gauges for some reason. PLEASE HELP :confused: Mucho Gracias.

wire the red using a "mini-sue tap" or "add-a-circuit" in the passengerside fusebox on the tailight fuse. that way it comes on when ur lights do. and jsut ground hte other wire

Same thing as wiring it to the ring on the cig lighter.... it will only be on when your lights are on. :cool:
