so I'm not that good at wiring, but I wanna wire up my boost gauge. has three wires: ground: well that's easy enough 12V ignition: can I wire this to the same power supply as the stereo or is that not a good idea? 12V lighting - not even sure what this means - needs to be connected to same supply as headlights?? any help appreciated

Lighting should be connected to anything that you turn on at night, e.g the headlights. power, not exactly sure.

connect the light wire to the illumination wire on the cigarete lighter and then the 12v/ignition wire to the ignition wire on the radio you might want to run it through a fuse if youre worried about it but you shouldnt need to
