I have just bought centre guage pod with turbo, oil pressure and temp guages. The fitting of the guages doesnt bother me too much, what i am more concerned with is wiring them up............anyone with experience?

cheers

And it'll depend on the type, (make) of gauges. You DID get senders?

scuubdoo......cheers m8 well helpfull. If i get any probs i'll let you know.

alcazar........theyre 52mm pro guages, thats all it sez on em, got em from milsport.co.uk as a pack and the senders did come with them. just a lack of instructions.

So.........how many wires on the rear of each? Any loom/wiring included?

Most gauges have wiring for sender, and lighting. Some have feed (live) and earth for each, some have two feeds and a common earth.

Some gauges need a live feed, often switched, too, and some, like Defis, need a permanent live as well.

Tried Googling the makers for an instruction download? Or e-mailing them? Or even phoning? (After Christmas, obviously )

they come with the smallest loom ever which clips into the back of the guages, just need ****loads more wire to connect to the senders. managed to fit those today, the oil pressure & temp sender work from the filter, bit tight, took a while to figure out how to get it in( as per usual lol) but thats done now, all thats left to do is connect em up. there are earthing places on the back of the senders but the really poor wiring diagrams doesnt say owt about earthing them, only on the guage itself, then i'm gonna probably take feed from the stereo.
