indiglo gauge help!

My friend owns a 99 Maxima and is trying to get indiglo gauges. Your how to says:

1. Remove the screws of the upper Dashboard
2. Take out the whole set of dashboard & disconnect the back wire cluster.
3. Remove the transparent plastic cover of the dashboard.
4. Remove all the screws from the original gauge face.
5. Carefully slide in the luminous digits onto the surface of the original gauges without removing the gauges needles.
6. Re aim at the luminous dial and screw back. (do not over tight to avoid short circuit)
7. Carefully put the transparent plastic cover back.
8. Connect the wires to the headlight power supply (red wire for positive electrode: black wire for negative electrode)
9. Connect all the wires of luminous dials to the inverter (Find a suitable area to install the adjustable switch)
10. Put back the dashboard and screw up.

Where is the "headlight power supply" that I'm searching for? I cant seem to find it. Geez Toyota's are so much easier... LOL. Anyways, any and all help would be appriciated!

Thanks,
Brian

Power your Indiglos with the wire that runs into the light stalk (the piece that turns your headlights on and off). If you have a multimeter use it. Make sure you connect to the correct wire. You can ground your gauges on the ground screw on the back of the gauge assembly or even to the body ground located behind the gauge assembly on the firewall. Have fun, you might need double sided tape if the needles stick while driving.
