HELP! Gauge Install

Anyone know the correct power wire off the headlight switch for glow gauge power!?!?

Also, where is a good ground for them?

I don't know which truck your asking for??????????????

If your asking for the parking light wire from the headlight switch on the 2002 ranger listed in your sig,

It is a brown wire at the headlight switch.

As for the ground wire, Use any factory ground that you can see under there. There should be at least one in the drivers kick panel or somewhere in that area.
