I know about starting your dash on fire. Its not cool.
I ghetto wired all of my street glow, my neons and shit back in the day and as I drove to the twin citeis the shit started on fire, iw as like OMG and i pulled off, and had to un hook everything. Not a big fire, but there was smoke, and the speaker wire i twisted togther was shot.
Just a headsup harwood.

i know i was just joking around.

alls i can say is i had my gauges hooked up like that once...then one day my car started smoking from my volts gauge..and they all stoped working...all my wiring melted.

Actually i set the diagram up in parallel, with series i would have to take the groun off the first one and connect it to the power on the next and so on. the way they are connected is like taking one wire and splicing seperate wires off of it to connect the power to the guages. same with the ground.

To power up the gauges and the lights on the gauges, you should use a bigger gauge wire than what is supplied just to be on the safe side. Use maybe a 14ga wire for the ignition and ground and then tap off of those for the 4 seperate gauges. And please use solder and tape.

use shrink tube and tape....trust me.
