I used the cigarette lighter for mine. Are your gauges electonic or mechanical? One problem I had (I have boost and oil press.) was that the power for the cig lighter came on when the key was in ACC mode. This caused my oil pressure warning to fire off when I just wanted to listen to the radio or something. So I used the power wire from the A/C harness as that only powers up in the ON position.
