Installing gauges, need help

I just bought some indiglo gauges and I was told to wire the power to the headlight switch, I have no idea where to wire it onto in the headlight switch because there are so many wires. Can anyone refer me or help me out on which specific wire to wire the gauges to. Thanks

Sorry I can't be much help, but if you look in the How-To stickies they have some stuff on gauges there.

I tried wiring some indiglo gauges i bought from ebay one time to the LED light dimmer (i think thats wat its called), it worked for a while, then my gauges just completely stopped working. I think it culd b the gauges, but you could try connecting the wires to the LED light dimmer, but i'm not sure if that's where you're supposed to connect them..?

sorri i can't b much of help to you either
