how to install a 00 01 02 CHEVY CAVALIER REVERSE GLOW GAUGES GAUGES W/T

It says to connect the possitive and negative wires to the head light control wires. Where do I find them? The intructions suck!

use the wire diagram in your repair manual or haynes manual and find the parking lights wire that attaches to the guage cluster and splice your power wire to it. You can splice your ground wire to the ground wire (black wire) that is also going to the guage cluster. Hope that helps. Good Luck!

The way I wired mine was I modified a little "leg" out of a U shaped connector. cut a leg off and fit it into a small space next to the ignition fuse, used the bolt hidden behind the cover next to the fuse box as a ground. Came out looking fairly clean, the gauges are on all the time though as they're wired through the ignition. it's kinda hard to explain how I did it without pictures. I'll see what I can get on here in a day or 2.
