Default A/FR gauge?

i bought a new FAZE air/fuel ratio gauge...i took it all out of the box and read the instructions....(i didnt have time to even began the install) and noticed the wiring instruction is very vague. what wires did you guys use for your dimmers, hots, gounds and all that stuff. and wich fuse/how did you wire it to the fues box?
any help would greatly speed up my install time... btw, i dont care if it dims at night...my eyes are used to being "high Beamed"

well you have one that goes to a ground, acceries(lights), ignition power and it should go to the oxygen sensor with a wire.

i have a aem wideband which is way different than the narrowband you baught. mine i had to digitaly hook everything up and weld in an o2 bung

yea, its just so vauge. its like oh... pick a 12V wire that dims with the lights, and a fuse box fuse in such a way that it will only recive 12v....then the oxeygen seson signal wire....its just so odd.

so, basically the dash light wire? and the ignition wire? and i should be good....thats what i though, but i wasnt sure what all i had in there because i havent had it apart for a while...
thank you

Sell the narrowband and buy a wideband..

Narrowband = useless blinky lights IMO

looks cool, but is totally pointless.

And i gotta question abotu what Burner said. Why did he have to weld a new O2 bung? I thoguht u could just replace the stock O2 sensor with the Wideband and thats that?

ok, question, where is the primary o2 sensor closest to the fire wall? and do i have to use the primary?

Why did he have to weld a new O2 bung?
could be the aftermarket or home made pipe? could be a different style o2 sensor.... idk.
