switched 12v source?
Pink wire = switched 12v source.
A rather large one can be found under the steering column that is part of the ignition, and another runs to the ASR switch if you have that.

thanks..the pink wire coming off the asr switch is good to use for a gauge? I wasn't sure and someone in the stereo section said it wasn't, but i'm dying to hook up my gauge already.

There is a blank spot labeled "IGN" or something like that...that is a switched 12V source. It is currently running my wideband O2 sensor. You do need to make sure you fuse whatever you have running off of it though for safety reasons.

It can take any kinda fuse you want it to...just get an inline fuse, and wire it in. It can't possibly draw much current, especially if it is working fine through the ASR switch.
