I just installed a boost gauge on my steering column cover. The only thing I have left to do is wire the power. I had some fuse taps so I thought I would use the dashboard light fuse like I read in some instructions posted here.

It turns out the fusetap is for a normal size fuse and most of my fuses are very small in size. The tap is way too big. I went back to the parts store and thats the only size they carry. I tried trimming it down with some tin snips but I still couldn't get the fuse back in.

The other instructions I read said to tap into the back of the headlight switch. On the 06's the headlights are on a stalk on the steering column. The two switches by the fuses are foglights and adjustment for the headlight height so that won't work.

Anyone know if they sell tiny fuse taps, or is there an easy place to get power near the fuse block?

 

bro, tap the power off your dim switch and you can ground it there also. go to www.evomoto.com for installation info.

 

Thanks for the tip. I think I have it figured out now.

 

Well, it didn't work for me. I tapped into the green and silver wire for power, and used the bottom screw holding the fuse block to a metal frame for a ground. I took it all apart and reinstalled it a second time and it still doesn't work.

Maybe I can tap into the factory MR gauges for power?
