Installing Indigo Gauges

I checked the FAQ's already, but they didn't help. Is it correct that I leave the old faces on and put the new ones on over it. There is no screw hole in the new faces, How do I get them to stay in place, and where do the wires run out of the cluster?

Yeah that's what I did do, I just taped the edges to hold in place and then put the cover on. Worked out fine.

Where should I wire into so that they come on when the lights do? I have a black and red wire.

Ok so how do I track down the headlight power supply. I don't want to go cutting random wires. Should I tap into it behind the fuse box. Any help on locating this wire, like color or what fuse it connects to?

Any info on finding the power supply? I was hoping to get these gauges finished today while the weather is going to be somewhat nice (mid 40s)
