2nd Generation Installing Reverse Glow Gauges

I have a 1989 Camry and am getting ready to install some reverse Glow Gauges. i have a few questions tho referring to the wiring. does anyone know how to install the glow gauges on a gen 2 camry, or is there a pictured step by step process some where? Also does anyone know how to wire the gauges in so that i can have them come on like the stock ones when i turn the switch on for parking lights and head lights. i dont want to use their on/off switch. finally. does anyone know the wire colors to do this? (ground and hot)


Off topic question, but does anyone know where i can buy painted bumpers for my car so i can install a body kit?

Use the parking light wire for power.



^ Green wire (2nd from the left).


For the ground, you can tie it to one of the nuts/bolts behind the gauge cluster. Or use the black wire thats to the left of the green wire (in the pic above).
