Come with instructions? I think most of the Prosports are wired about the same (maybe slightly different colors wires).

Power - Find an IGN source (only on with key on, can use an add-a-circuit to the fuse box)

Ground - Find a clean place to bolt the wire to chassis ground

Sensor - Run the wire to the sensor. If the sensor has a ground return, attach it to the same spot as the ground for the gauge.

The different color gauge option has two wires - You connect one wire for one color or the other wire for the other color to IGN to set the gauge to the same color all the time. If you connect one wire to an IGN source and the other wire to a headlight source, then the gauge will change colors when you turned the headlights on. Depending on which one is connected to the headlight source and which is the IGN source you determine the color change.

They have the instructions on the site. Hope this helps.

Which gauges are you trying to install? I can help you out. Use the cigarette lighter for the power since it's really close, find a clean ground and depending on which gauge it is depends on where the signal wire/hose goes.

Gauge systems are EASY to install. I did a oil psi and coolant temp on a BMW, took me about 1hr for both gauges and I used the cig lighter as well. Plan your assault first!

This should help you out, this is all the wiring diagrams for prosport gauges.

I know this thread is old but i just installed mine after owning them for a year. it took me a few hrs because i did it at night and made it look like it came in the car stock. a lot of the wires on the inside you can wire together which is what i did for the accessory ones. I installed the boost gauge and the oil temp and pressure gauge. Im not completely done yet because i need to get a reducer for the oil temp and pressure sensors which will plug straight into the extra ports where the oil filter housing is located. hopefully everything works out for you. Mine look awesome during the day and night cant wait to get those reducers so i can finally say this project is done because i have many others in the future lol.
