Help with wiring Greddy Infometer Touch please?

Well, I am looking at buying the Greddy Infometer Touch (http://www.greddy.com/home/?id=282) and it uses the cig lighter socket for power. I was wondering if anyone would have any suggestions on how to hardwire the unit so I can do it at the same time when I install the boost gauge? Thank you so much!

Instructions from Greddy:
Installing the unit.
OBD (TYPE)
1. Connect to OBD connecter.
2. Connect the Red wire with the Male bullet plug on the white connect to the
Black/White female bullet connector on the cigarette lighter cable.
3. Connect the cigarette lighter cable to the vehicles cigarette lighter socket for
ignition power.

it would be better if it could hook up external sensors like boost, oil temp, egts and a/f.

I have one and you can hook a WB O2 sensor as long as it supports 0-5v output like the AEM UEGO. You don't have to hook it up to the cigarette lighter, you can connect it directly to your fuse box so you don't have anything in your cigarette lighter.

Can you please explain how you connect it directly to the fuse box?

Just connect the positive wire to any fuse that will turn on with the ACC on in the fuse box, such as stereo, a/c, etc. The other big connector connects to the ODB2 port......

So there is no ground wire? Is this going to be basically the same as hooking up a boost gauge?

boost, oil temp, and oil pressure are optional add-on sensors for this device. You can purchase the wire harnesses for it. This device is godly.
