Finally looking to install these gauges into my car, I did some research but could not find a direct answer to some questions I have. Sorry if they are dumb questions just not very good when it comes to electrical.
First question is if I’m running them to my obd2 port do I still need to find a 12v location to plug a fuse too. And if so which one do you guys recommend? Also if I run them to obd2 port do they automatically shut off? Reason I ask since I didn’t need my key to turn them on to make sure they are working.
I’m also running a 5v kit that comes with it for the oil pressure switch not sure if that makes it any different.
And I guess last question is do you guys run it (the wires) through the side of the dash by the door or find a small path by the end of the windshield under the dash? Videos I’ve seen I’ve seen people run them both ways. Trying to make it a clean look even though I couldn’t find any speed of hut pillars so i have to tap in through the stock pillar.
