Aftermarket Gauge Light wiring to OEM dimmer

03-19-2017, 10:16 PM

Picked up some gauges to throw in a 3 pillar pod (oil temp, boost, EGT). They are autometer gauges and have LED for gauge backlighting. Was doing some reading online, and some people were saying trying to run gauge backlighting off the OEM dash dimmer could blow your cluster... Wanted some input on this, stock always on (well ign switched) the gauges are going to be way to bright at night when driving around in the country without any light....
